its looking for libreadline.so.2 not librealdine.so.4.2. maybe its a bug in the package..maybe not .. in the meantime it may work to make a link: cd /lib ; ln -s libreadline.so.4.2 libreadline.so.2 assuming libreadline4 has everything that libreadline2 had that the ftp client needs..it may or may not.. worth a shot though. don't know why it happened .. nate
