% Yeah.  To restate the question, is it finally compatible with current
% compiler and libraries, or does it still need the old compiler and
% libraries, i.e. not very interesting.  I have Flash with Phoenix and

As I wrote in another message, I don't know.  Ah, wait, there's "ldd":

$ ldd libflashplayer.so 
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x40230000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40283000)
        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x40286000)
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x40293000)
        libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x4035b000)
        libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x40369000)
        libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 => /usr/i386-slackware-linux/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 (0x403bb000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40402000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40425000)
        libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x40558000)
        libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x40561000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

Again, it works here for Mozilla 1.3. As does the 1.4.2 JRE Java
plugin.
