Blow me down flat if I know. Unless you have ls aliased to "ls -L" and
libc is really installed in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib, I don't know how
you could get that result. You might try ls -l /usr/lib/libc* and
/usr/local/lib/libc* and see what you find.
Normally version 2 of libcrypt goes with libc.so.6, although I do have a
libc.so.1, it is a symbolic link to libcrypt-2.0.6.so. Does crypt()
work?
