Purpose
To formally extend support for Central and Central Pro Output Server 5.7 to SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 (64 bit). This article also explains the required procedure for the product to function properly.
Issue
A library required by Central was available by default on earlier versions of SUSE Linux Enterprise. SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 does not include this library by default. This leads to a failure in processing files by Central with the following error:
./jfmerge: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

Note: SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 (32 bit) is not supported.
