[PLUG] URPMI trouble

[Skool!lookS]

[shirish at localhost ~]$ ldd /lib64/librpmbuild.so.7
         not a dynamic executable

[shirish at localhost ~]$ ls -ll /lib64/librpmbuild*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     20 Mar 29 18:13 /lib64/librpmbuild.so.7 -> 
librpmbuild.so.7.0.2*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 155504 Oct 26 18:27 /lib64/librpmbuild.so.7.0.1*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root      0 Mar 29 18:14 /lib64/librpmbuild.so.7.0.2*

So a newer file (which has the link) is size zero, an older version 
looks alright.

relink to the old libfile?

Thanks Ranjith (in advance)

Just out of curiosity, am I getting help from Saudi (South) India?
The appended "h" tells the spelling is from southern part of India.

There is a funny thing about Indian States. They remove "h" from 
Gujarath (making it Gujarat), and in South they append "h". I am still 
learn the rule when "h" gets appended. But very interesting learning at 
a philosophical level. (e.g. name Amith Shah)

if you know that rule (when to append h) please share it.

My Mallu as well as telugu friends used to always spell/pronounce my 
name sirish.  So many issues that I finally gave up on all native names 
that are written using english/latin script, which makes me eternally 
challenged person on Languages and Litteracy front.
