dont worry, it's not that bad. i found out when i switched from potato->woody that sometimes you just have to softlink the "missing" files to existing (possibly with lower version-numbers) files... or sometimes do a 'dpkg -x <package> /' if it still wouldnt want to install.
oh yeah, dont forget to run ldconfig when you've created new links to libraries. greetz (--[ on Tuesday 21 August 2001 11:10, P Kirk bothered us with ]:: ^ perl: error while loading shared libraries: libdb.so.3: cannot open shared ^ objec ^ t file: No such file or directory ^ ^ I've done a Google search and seen this come up a lot but can't find a fix. ^ ^ Is my system now broken beyond repair or is there a way to fix this? ^ Manually compile glibc perhaps? -- :---------------=::=----------------: | L .
