My system produced:
libdl.so.1 => libdl.so.1.9.5
libdl.so.2 => libdl-2.1.1.so
libdb.so.2 => libdl-2.1.1.so
libdb.so.3 => libdb-2.1.1.so

Done! My /etc/ld.so.conf was:
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib
Now it reads:
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib
/lib/
As expected, ldconfig -v >l ibs.list followed by cat libs.list | grep
libdb* gives me now:
libdl.so.1 => libdl.so.1.9.5
libdl.so.2 => libdl-2.1.1.so
libdb.so.2 => libdb1-2.1.1.so
libdb.so.3 => libdb-2.1.1.so
libdl.so.1 => libdl.so.1.9.5
libdl.so.2 => libdl-2.1.1.so
libdb.so.2 => libdb1-2.1.1.so
libdb.so.3 => libdb-2.1.1.so
Diferring from yours in the lines
libdb.so.2 =>libdb.so.2
libdl.so.2 => libdl-2.1.1.sok
(Typos, perhaps?) In any case, kpackage and rpm worked fine. Can anyone
guess why this /lib/ line was not in /etc/ld.so.conf previoulsy, since I had not
messed with this file before?
Thanks a lot for the answer, Richard. It's probably nightime where you are
and you went through some work to solve my problems here in a bright afternoon.
I am very grateful.
(Sorry all for the long post, but I figured this message could help someone
else who looks through the archives, as I've done so many times.)
Best regards,
/Gustavo.
