Re: errors in Linux

[Kung-Jeng Wang]

Hi, 

I got the same error messages as Pietro had when heatbugs is run.
(However, the application still runs well.) 

The sawrm-1.0.0 binary+source is installed on my machine with hpux-9.05. 

I tried to setenv BLT_LIBRARY to /swarm-1.0.0/lib as Doug suggested, 
but it seems not work.

Any further suggestions? 

Thanks in advance.
