Hey David, I know you already found the library, but there's a handy
little tool on Fedora/Redhat systems (and others based on rpm packages)
called yum. Once it's set up, you can do fun stuff like "yum provides
libXp" and you'll get back a list of all the packages that have some
file or feature matching the name "libXp". It's just really handy when
you're trying to figure out what package provides a certain file.
