Stevens,

You mention you still want to use the 1.2 libraries. Do you want to continue
developping with 1.2? Or, do you simply want to continue executing old 1.2
applications?

If the later is sufficient, I suggest to simply replace pf1.2 with pf2.0 and to
install performer_eoe.sw.performer1_2, the Performer 1.2 Compatibility DSOs.
This will allow you to execute old 1.2 applications while you develop new one
with pf2.0

BTW, pf2.0 has porting tools in /usr/share/Performer/src/tools

Hope it helps...
