I accidentally deleted libstdc++ :(


Yes I did!!! I installed rarlinux and it complained about the non existence libstdc++.so.5. In FC4 I found libstdc++.so.6...so I made a link "ln -s libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.5"......rar this time found the libraries but it also did not work since it needed specific version of the libraries...so I thought i will delete the link and i issued this command "rm -f libstdc++.*"....why i did that....stupidity!!!

now i cant use yum and at the same time cant use rpm to install the package again.....what can i do??

Re-install the libstdc++ rpms installed on your system;

rpm -Uvh ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub...libstdc++*.rpm --force

One long line with a space after the .rpm portion and before the --force portion.

libstdc++.so.5 is provided by compat-libstdc++-33, so install that as well.

Yes, rpm should work just fine.
