Install strace. ;-)

It's useful for this sort of thing, among other things...

I'm sure there's an strace rpm in CS 1.0, right Dan?

I'm thinking it probably is...what happens when you get this sort of
message is there's a library or some other file that's needed, and the
runtime linker bombs out on it...all you see is "command not found," but
strace will tell you what library or executable was called.
