Unable to use cmake any many other commands after yum update
 

Hi,
I just did a yum update on my system on redhat 5.4. After that I am unable to use many commands like cmake,make etc. It is giving below error.
$ cmake
cmake: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.3: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

I did few searches and found it is due to 32 bit libcurl file instead of 64 bit on my 64 bit system.I removed curl.i386 using "rpm -e --nodepend libcurl.i386" command, but still it is giving me same error.

Below are outputs of other commands that i ran as google suggested.

ldconfig -p | grep libcurl
libcurl.so.4 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/libcurl.so.4
libcurl.so.4 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4
libcurl.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.3
libcurl.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/libcurl.so
libcurl.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/libcurl.so
After removal libcurl is not present in /usr/lib but it is still present in /usr/lib64

Can i somehow remove libcurl.so.3 from ldconfig or any other solution to link it correctly. Thanks.

Ask RH support. If a bad update has occurred someone should know about it and arrange that another update sorts it out.

My best guess is it was not a bad update. I have tried to do several changes in the system that i don't understand fully. Only issue was even removing and reinstalling libcurl is not helping at all. Anyways I think I will do stuff in vm instead.Thanks.
