Hi Mike, thank you for tips. In fact I have several "old" .so files installed:
$ locate libgeos_c.so /usr/lib/libgeos_c.so /usr/lib/libgeos_c.so.1 /usr/lib/libgeos_c.so.1.8.2 /usr/local/lib/libgeos_c.so /usr/local/lib/libgeos_c.so.1 /usr/local/lib/libgeos_c.so.1.7.1 /usr/local/src/geos-3.3.1/capi/.libs/libgeos_c.so /usr/local/src/geos-3.3.1/capi/.libs/libgeos_c.so.1 /usr/local/src/geos-3.3.1/capi/.libs/libgeos_c.so.1.7.1 /usr/local/src/geos-3.3.1/capi/.libs/libgeos_c.so.1.7.1T /usr/share/gvSIG-desktop-2.0.0/gvSIG/extensiones/org.gvsig.raster.tilecache.app/install/files/native/libgeos_c.so.1 /usr/share/gvSIG-desktop-2.0.0/native/libgeos_c.so.1 The problem is that running dpkg only libgeos-3.4.2 shows up: $ dpkg -l | grep libgeos ii libgeos-3.4.2 3.4.2-4ubuntu1 amd64 Geometry engine for Geographic Information Systems - C++ Library ii libgeos-c1 3.4.2-4ubuntu1 amd64 Geometry engine for Geographic Information Systems - C Library ii libgeos-dev 3.4.2-4ubuntu1 amd64 Geometry engine for GIS - Development files Meaning that these old .so must be removed manually. In my experience this always leads to other problems down the road. Any hints on how to safely remove these old files is welcome. Another thing: why were these files left in the system, if the corresponding package is no longer installed? Is this a problem with the Ubuntu upgrade procedure? Or an issue with the package itself?
