Lately every time I update my system I see umpteen cycles of messages complaining about a group of files that are "not a symbolic link": /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloosrfi27_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloocrypto_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloothread_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloopthread_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloosrfi1_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloomail_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbiglootext_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloopkgcomp_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloocalendar_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbiglooweb_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloostreamer_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloosqlite_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloopackrat_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloopkglib_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloomultimedia_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link Tonight every one of the following had to grind thru one of these 15-part cycles: Installing : 1:qt-4.7.1-17.fc14.i686 38/258 Updating : 1:qt-x11-4.7.1-17.fc14.i686 40/258 Updating : gnuradio-3.2.2-9.fc14.i686 42/258 Updating : usrp-3.2.2-9.fc14.i686 43/258 Updating : 1:qt-webkit-4.7.1-17.fc14.i686 45/258 Updating : 32:bind-libs-9.7.3-1.fc14.i686 46/258 Updating : 2:gimp-libs-2.6.11-6.fc14.i686 48/258 Updating : kdepimlibs-4.5.5-2.fc14.i686 50/258 Updating : kdepimlibs-akonadi-4.5.5-2.fc14.i686 53/258 Updating : 32:bind-9.7.3-1.fc14.i686 56/258 Updating : exiv2-libs-0.20-3.fc14.i686 61/258 Updating : libCg-3.0.0015-1.fc14.i686 62/258 Updating : gnuradio-devel-3.2.2-9.fc14.i686 72/258 Updating : google-perftools-1.7-1.fc14.i686 81/258 Updating : fuse-libs-2.8.5-4.fc14.i686 87/258 Updating : quvi-0.2.13-1.fc14.i686 88/258 Cleanup : erlang-typer-R14B-0.5.fc14.i686 180/258 Cleanup : yakuake-2.9.7-2.fc14.i686 183/258 Cleanup : gnuradio-3.2.2-7.fc14.i686 187/258 Cleanup : usrp-3.2.2-7.fc14.i686 188/258 Cleanup : 1:qbittorrent-2.6.5-1.fc14.i686 189/258 Cleanup : 1:qt-x11-4.7.1-7.fc14.i686 191/258 Cleanup : gimp-help-browser-2.6.11-1.fc14.i686 192/258 Cleanup : erlang-el_interface-R14B-0.5.fc14.i686 211/258 Cleanup : deltaiso-3.6-0.2.20100708git.fc14.i686 216/258 Cleanup : deltarpm-3.6-0.2.20100708git.fc14.i686 223/258 Cleanup : 32:bind-libs-9.7.2-5.P3.fc14.i686.i686 227/258 Cleanup : 2:gimp-libs-2.6.11-1.fc14.i686 228/258 Cleanup : xplanet-1.2.1-2.fc12.i686 229/258 Cleanup : minicom-2.5-1.fc14.i686 232/258 Cleanup : quvi-0.2.12-1.fc14.i686 238/258 Cleanup : soundtracker-0.6.8-8.fc12.i686 239/258 Each of these loops takes a noticeable amount of time -- especially on this old 32-bit system. Thirty-two iterations of this loop add substantially to the total update time. I see counterpart messages when updating a 64-bit system. When I look at all the libbigloo* files in /usr/lib, the *_u-3.4a.so files are soft linked to *_s-3.4a.so files. There are also *_eu-3.4a.so and *_es-3.4a.so versions of those files available for linking. Do I have the correct links? --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
