gotten fairly long in the tooth -- 6 years or so I think -- and
most linux distributions have never been very careful about
maintaining shared-library backward compatibility for old
system library versions. (libc, libstdc++, libncurses, ...)
The best thing to do is to recompile, so I just did that,
on a 32-bit intel Fedora 11 system, and tested the result on
an Ubuntu 10.4.1 amd64 system. It seems to run fine.
You can find it on the partiview web page:
http://virdir.ncsa.illinois.edu/partiview/
See under "Binaries". There are recent versions posted for Windows,
Mac OS X (intel, compiled under 10.5), and Linux 32-bit intel.
The MacOS and linux bundles include both "partiview" and a
companion colormap editor, "cmed".
