Okay ... first thing to type is: ldconfig

This will refresh the library cache, and should be ran after any new
libraries are installed. If it /still/ doesn't work, then find out where
libc5 is installed, and check that the directory that it lives in exists in
the file /etc/ld.so.conf. If it doesn't, add it (one directory per line), and
then re-run ldconfig.

If it /still/ doesn't work - has ld-linux.so.1 been installed? If not, find
that as that is the dynamic load library needed for pre-glibc2 (ie, libc5,
libc4).

Install, check /etc/ld.so.conf, rerun ldconfig, and then it should work.
