Igmar - mucho thanks - >Yeah, throw away libc. It's old, buggy and gives shit. Only Netscape >4.x needs it as far as I know. "rpm -q --whatrequires libc" showed no one wanting to play with it on this system anyways. So...rpm -e libc ...and now it's gone. >Also make sure /lib/libc.so.6 points to libc-2.1.3.so. Looking at the >error, glib (yes, without the c) is compiled on a newer system. Yes - # ls -l libc.so.6 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Nov 23 2000 libc.so.6 -> libc-2.1.3.so so that's fine. From the rpm -l listing of files included in glib, I get: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Nov 26 2000 /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0 -> libglib -1.2.so.0.0.8 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 172425 Oct 27 2000 /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0.0.8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Nov 26 2000 /usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0 -> libg module-1.2.so.0.0.8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12430 Oct 27 2000 /usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0.0.8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Nov 26 2000 /usr/lib/libgthread-1.2.so.0 -> libg thread-1.2.so.0.0.8 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 11520 Oct 27 2000 /usr/lib/libgthread-1.2.so.0.0.8 and pam's libs - # ls -l /lib/libpam* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Feb 19 2001 libpam.so -> libpam.so.0.72 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Nov 23 2000 libpam.so.0 -> libpam.so.0.72 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 33718 Nov 30 2000 libpam.so.0.72 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6540 Nov 30 2000 libpam_misc.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Feb 19 2001 libpam_misc.so -> libpam_misc.so.0.72 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Nov 23 2000 libpam_misc.so.0 -> libpam_misc.so.0.72 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 10303 Nov 30 2000 libpam_misc.so.0.72 So is the fact that libpam_misc.so.0.72 was compiled 19Feb2001, later than the libg libraries, somehow the source of the problem? Again, these are all from straight redhat RPM distributions - I didn't compile/build any myself. thanks again, David
