Hmm...when I checked the tex2rtf linkmap here, I discovered this ;

 ldd /usr/local/bin/tex2rtf
    linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
    libwx_gtk2_richtext-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_richtext-2.8.so.0 (0xf7e80000)
    libwx_gtk2_aui-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_aui-2.8.so.0 (0xf7e18000)
    libwx_gtk2_xrc-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_xrc-2.8.so.0 (0xf7d8a000)
    libwx_gtk2_qa-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_qa-2.8.so.0 (0xf7d6c000)
    libwx_gtk2_html-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_html-2.8.so.0 (0xf7cd3000)
    libwx_gtk2_adv-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_adv-2.8.so.0 (0xf7c14000)
    libwx_gtk2_core-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_core-2.8.so.0 (0xf78db000)
    libwx_base_xml-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_base_xml-2.8.so.0 (0xf78d1000)
    libwx_base_net-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_base_net-2.8.so.0 (0xf78a5000)
    libwx_base-2.8.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwx_base-2.8.so.0 (0xf777c000)

...blabla.....and, despite the fact that I didn't see the error you encountered, this
is actually wrong -- we *should* be linking against the custom wx libs installed
in /usr/local/wx289/.....yes??

Ergo, this is probably because in the tex2rtf build instructions, we don't actually 
specify   --with-wx-prefix=PREFIX   at configure time, and the result is the tex2rtf
build ends up using system installed wx libs instead. This would seem counter-
intuitive, as we'd be expecting the tex2rtf build to see the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
variable in our ~/.bash_profile (which was set during the wx build phase), so my
best guess here is that the tex2rtf tree isn't honoring LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

As it turns out, my system-wide wx installation is indeed a debug version build, and
this would explain why I didn't encounter this same error building jazz itself.


Kevin, my suggestion is to rebuild/reinstall tex2rtf, but at configure time doing ;

../tex2rtf/configure --with-wx-prefix=/usr/local/wx289

This should result in tex2rtf being linked against our custom wx libs, and the
problem you found should go away.....

Don
