No, they depend on the host environment for all libraries that are not |
| 21 |
unique to the application: libc, libstdc++, Qt, gtk, xml, crypto, ssl, |
| 22 |
etc. If necissary, I could grab the required libraires from a Centos |
| 23 |
or Ubuntu installation and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH appropriately in a |
| 24 |
wrapper, but that's annoying... |
