Description
In the binary version 1.3.4, xpidl (sdk) is linked against libIDL-0.6.so.0, this library is shipped with an old version of libIDL, there are distros that currently don't support this library anymore. (eg. gentoo)
Is possible to link xpidl with a new version of libIDL in next releases?

Fixed by installing new packages on our rhel3 box. xpidl is linked against libIDL-2.so.0 now.

The reason for this is that we build the binaries on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (RHEL3) and there appears to be no rpm available for libIDL-2. Our build system first tries to locate libIDL-2 and then looks for libIDL.
In case anyone knows a convenient rpm for RHEL3, we could change that.
