Icecat 3.0.3 runtime error

[arnuld uttre]

I just downloaded the Iecat 3.0.3 binary from here  and when I run it
, I get this error:


address@hidden ~]$ .local/icecat-3.0.3-g1/icecat
.local/icecat-3.0.3-g1/icecat-bin: error while loading shared

Firefox 3.0.3 runs  on my system (though it crashes a lot). Does it
mean that Icecat is using different run time libraries from Firefox ?

I am still using Icecat 2.0.0.13-g1 as all version of Icecat 3 give
same error on my system. I searched on libxcb and found that it is
replacement for Xlib:  http://xcb.freedesktop.org/. SInce my
"apt-cache search xcb" does not return anything at all, does it mean
CentOS is still using Xlib and hence I can never use Icecat 3 ?
