The build seemed to go smoothly, the sudo install didn't complain, but whenever I run the VM I get an error "Can't infer base LD_LIBRARY_PATH" and I've not seen that error as far as I can recall. I note that I don't have that in my environment. I tried adding it (and sourcing) to .profile, setting it to /usr/local/lib (seems a reasonable guess?) but that didn't help.<br>

</div>Sounds like an Eliot question to me. I never saw that one in my path towards buildvana. I would have to guess that 'ldd' is either mispelt lsd or something like 'large disk dump', like 'dd' is 'disk dump'. Unix program names are *so* helpfully mnemonic.<br>
