New Linux Version

For Linux there are now three flavors of ShopSite SC v5.0.1 available, depending on the version of libc you are running (libc5, libc6.0, or libc6.1/6.2). We have provided a script (ckplatform) that can be used to determine what version of libc is on your Linux system. Details are available in the "README-first.txt" file located on the FTP site.
