Message during yum update

Noob/rookie/greenhorn question of the day.....

When I run "yum update" the update goes through OK but I notice some messages that have me wondering if I should be concerned about anything.

After spending some time poking around on Google to see if there is something there with no results, or at least results that I can make heads or tails of I posting here in the offhand event someone else has run into the same thing as myself and has mercy on this greenhorn.

Here is what I am getting;

Code:

The item that has me wondering if I need to fix something is this;

Code:

/sbin/ldconfig: libraries libpng12.so.0 and libpng.so in directory /usr/lib have same soname but different type.

Any thoughts????

Ive read googling that depend on two different version of same library installed on the system

related here:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/same-soname-but-different-type-322326/

and here:
http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=597142

They suggest to make a symlink from the older one to the newest one

So please past the output of:

Code:

ls -l /usr/lib/libpng.so
ls -l /usr/lib/libpng.so.0

Or find out the newest one of those two lib and remove the older creating a symlink with same name to the newest

Regards

SeLLeRoNe · Apr 26, 2011

Another way to go is:

Code:

rpm -qa --qf="%{n}-%{v}-%{r}.%{arch}\n" 'expat*' 'libpng*'

Remove the older versions using the output from the command above, for example;

Code:

rpm -e libpng-devel-VER --allmatches

Changing VER with the older version

Regards

nealdxmhost · Apr 26, 2011

This is what I am getting;

Code:

[root@cp ~]# ls -l /usr/lib/libpng.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jul 17  2010 /usr/lib/libpng.so -> libpng12.so

and

Code:

[root@cp ~]# ls: /usr/lib/libpng.so.0: No such file or directory
bash: ls:: command not found

Therefore I would presume if I ran the following;

Code:

ln -s usr/lib/libpng.so usr/lib/libpng.so.0

Correct me if I am wrong.

SeLLeRoNe · Apr 26, 2011

Yes but you misswrote the second command

Code:

[root@cp ~]# ls: /usr/lib/libpng.so.0: No such file or directory
bash: ls:: command not found

You wrote ls:
in fat the error is ls:: command not found

Retry it

Code:

ls /usr/lib/libpng.so.0

Here where I run the first command I am getting this result;

Code:

[root@cp ~]# rpm -qa --qf="%{n}-%{v}-%{r}.%{arch}\n" 'expat*' 'libpng*'
expat-1.95.8-8.3.el5_5.3.i386
libpng-devel-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.x86_64
libpng-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.i386
libpng-devel-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.i386
expat-devel-1.95.8-8.3.el5_5.3.x86_64
libpng-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.x86_64
expat-1.95.8-8.3.el5_5.3.x86_64
expat-devel-1.95.8-8.3.el5_5.3.i386

Anyhow I thought I would wait for an additional followup before I run the second command you suggested. FYI the system is CENTOS 5.6 (I believe) 64 bit on a P4 with 2GB physical memory.

That is odd, perhaps a typo on my part during my response. Here is the result again;

Code:

[root@cp ~]# ls -l /usr/lib/libpng.so.0
bash: [root@cp: command not found

SeLLeRoNe · Apr 26, 2011

Ok, so the right command to remove the older libpng version is

Code:

rpm -e libpng-devel-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.i386 libpng-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.i386 --allmatches

Ok this is still strange

why doesnt recognis ls command...

Try:

Code:

ls -l /usr/lib/libpng.so.*

Or remove directly the packages as i wrote in previous post

Gave that a whirl and this is what I come up with;

Code:

[root@cp ~]# rpm -e libpng-devel-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.i386 libpng-1.2.10-7.1.el5_5.3.i386 --allmatches

mmmmh... ok... my mistake.. i missread the list.

So, return to:

Code:

ls -l /usr/lib/libpng.so.*

And lets see where the .0 (if exist) go..

If doesnt exist, make a symlink

Code:

ln -s /usr/lib/libpng.so /usr/lib/libpng.so.0

And then try again yum update
