ghostview missing libc.so.4?

Mine has libc.so.5. No wonder the app is failing, it specifically wants 
.4 and is too dumb to work with anything newer. I'm getting real 
frustrated with this again, I'd like to move away from MS but it's not 
easy to do when the apps I need don't even work properly.</rant>
