Hi,

No offense to anybody, but installing a software product now-days should not
have to be as painful as it is. Looking for module referencing is not what
will solve the problem. I dont think it is in the user's best interest to
spent time trying to configure something that should have been done by the
persons who created the software.

From Steve:

Tell Enils that they can use the nm(1) utility to discover what modules
are referencin the "__ctype_b" symbol and what C runtime library
contains the symbol.
