[Jason.Beech-Brandt at ed.ac.uk]

Hi Brad,

In my build paraview-1.6.3-solaris/bin directory I have the following
files

ConvertImage*
H5detect*
libkwsys.so*
libvtkClientServer.so*
libvtkCommon.so*
libvtkCommonCS.so*
libvtkCommonTCL.so*
libvtkDICOMParser.so*
libvtkexpat.so*
libvtkFiltering.so*
libvtkFilteringCS.so*
libvtkfreetype.so*
libvtkftgl.so*
libvtkGraphics.so*
libvtkGraphicsCS.so*
libvtkhdf5.so*
libvtkHybrid.so*
libvtkHybridCS.so*
libvtkImaging.so*
libvtkImagingCS.so*
libvtkIO.so*
libvtkIOCS.so*
libvtkjpeg.so*
libvtkKWCommon.so*
libvtkKWParaView.so*
libvtkKWParaViewCS.so*
libvtkKWWidgetsTCL.so*
libvtkParallel.so*
libvtkParallelCS.so*
libvtkPatented.so*
libvtkPatentedCS.so*
libvtkpng.so*
libvtkPVCommon.so*
libvtkPVCommonCS.so*
libvtkPVFilters.so*
libvtkPVFiltersCS.so*
libvtkPVServerManager.so*
libvtkPVServerManagerTCL.so*
libvtkRendering.so*
libvtkRenderingCS.so*
libvtktiff.so*
libvtkXdmf.so*
libvtkXdmfCS.so*
libvtkzlib.so*
libXdmf.so*
mkg3states*
paraview*
ProcessXML*
pvTestDriver*
vtkTestFilters*
vtkWrapClientServer*
vtkWrapTcl*
vtkWrapTclInit*

Of these the following contain a reference to libucb.so.1

libvtkKWParaView.so
libvtkKWParaViewCS.so
libvtkPVCommon.so
libvtkPVCommonCS.so
libvtkPVFilters.so
libvtkPVFiltersCS.so
libvtkPVServerManager.so
libvtkPVServerManagerTCL.so
libvtkXdmf.so
libvtkXdmfCS.so
libXdmf.so
paraview
vtkTestFilters

Any ideas?

Thanks,
