SNIP
When I try running kpackage (or rpm, for that matter) I get the following error
message:
kpackage: error in loading shared libraries: libdb.so.2 cannot open shared
object file: no such file or directory
SNIP and rearrange for readability
I did not have such probIem before - I've done a recent re-install (I
had not installed devel packages in my debutant install, duh!) of the
entire system. A clean install, wiping my / . What gives?
/Gustavo.
Now my examples are coming from Redhat-6.0 but i would imagen there
would not be much differenace in the way libs are linked or are
situated.
What you can do to check out what libs you have and how and where
they are linked to do;
ldconfig -v l ibs.list
Then do;
cat libs.list | grep libdb*
My system produces the following.
libdb.so.2 =libdb.so.2
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
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
If you do not see libdb.so.2 in the list then do;
whereis libdb.so.2
On my system that gives
libdb.so: /lib/libdb.so.2 /lib/libdb.so.3 /usr/lib/libdb.so
If there not there then you dont have them installed, if they are
there then add the directorys to /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun ldconfig.

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,
