[open-cobol-list] Linux Mint Borked?

[Patrick]

Hi Everyone

I need to copy a bunch of DVDs for my kids and Mint Linux is well suited 
for this so I switched over from Trisquel(also based on Ubunutu).

I installed OC from the repos and I have not had trouble compiling 
simple programs. However now that I am trying to mix C with Cobol, 
things are going bad. After failing with the repo version, I purged it 
and installed OC from source.

I have Brain's OCGTK example here and it compiled fine before. I even 
made a little shell script to compile it before, so I am running the 
exact same commands but I get this:

libcob: Cannot find module 'CBL_OC_G_SIGNAL_CONNECT'

I have also tried Brains cobpy and had similar issues.

I thought I'd try something simpler so I made a C program that calls 
Cobol and a Cobol program that is linked and calling back too. It calls 
into Cobol just fine and DISPLAY statements are printing but with this 
little piece:


void nothing(){
printf("printf calling");
}

I can't call back into C from Cobol. I get this:

libcob: Cannot find module 'nothing'

I edited my /etc/ld.so.conf and I added /usr/local/lib.

I ran ldconfig as sudo

I have tried for a couple hours to solve this and I am out of ideas. Is 
there something else I can try or should I just dump Mint?
