[plug] KaZaA for linux

Being the cynical bastard I am :) I don't trust precompiled P2P programs
on my machine.
I've got audiogalaxy running fine in it's own chroot, but I can't get
KaZaA to run properly in it's own chroot...
I've run ldd to find out what libs are required, I've run lsof -c kza to
find files opened by kazaa (kza is the executable) and I've also run it
from a bash shell (with libs) just to be sure (no change).

The symptoms are simple. I login in with a valid username/password pair
and it pauses for 1/4 sec and then seg faults, leaving a 21MB core file
and a smile.

I've added libresolv* and libnss_* to the ./lib/ and resolv.conf to ./etc/
to be safe , but still no luck.

What I think is left is to use the core file, but I've generally stayed
away from anything that produces core files (as a sign of dodgey
programmng usually :)

If anyone can suggest things to look at, or a quick explanation of what to
do with the core file, that someone who isn't the original programmer can
fathom, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Craig Foster
