- The *.sa files are from the old a.out X11 distribution. They do not exist
- anymore under ELF, so you should either move them to /usr/m68k-linuxaout/lib
- (where they should have gone when you switched over to ELF), or even delete
- them if you ARE SURE you are not going to compile any more X11 programs
- in a.out format.

- Sure, I'm doing that all the time. I hope Geert's hint helps you fixing
- your installation.
