hello everybody,
when i do /sbin/ldconfig i get the following error:
File /usr/lib/libartsbuilder.so.0.0.0.#prelink#.bp1gAw is empty, not checked. how to mend this?
is this also the reason why my xmms crashes when i reboot my system after installing xmms? before reboot xmms works fine. i use rhel 4, on p3 933mhz.
thanks in advance.

That is a bizarre name for a library. You may need to reinstall the kdemultimedia3-sound package. ( That is the package that supplied libartsbuilder.so on my system. )

hi man,
kdemultimedia was installed. the package left in kde was kdeadmin.i installed it .same result. pl help.TIA.

What does "rpm -qf /usr/lib/libartsbuilder.so.0.0.0.#prelink#.bp1gAw" say.

For another thing, version "0.0.0" doesn't make sense either. This looks like maybe an aborted attempt at building libartsbuilder. Do you have another version of libartsbuilder.so?

Verify the kdemultimedia3-sound package.

If you have a normal libartsbuilder.so library, move /usr/lib/libartsbuilder.so.0.0.0.#prelink#.bp1gAw out of the way like /root/ (at least temporarily) and run "sudo /sbin/ldconfig". I think the real solution is to simply delete the file. Getting it out of there is a safer alternative. Also if this file is indeed empty it won't be able to do anything.

vming slackware6413 in windows7

didnt notice it before but just ran slackpkg and ldconfig was saying ldconfig:
File /usr/lib64/libgegl-0.0.so.0.100.0 is empty, not checked.
ldconfig: File /usr/lib64/libgegl-0.0.so is empty, not checked.
ldconfig: File /usr/lib64/libgegl-0.0.so.0 is empty, not checked.

googled and couldnt find anything, checked here for "is empty, not checked." found this post

slocate libgeg
/usr/lib64/libgegl-0.0.so.0.100.0
/usr/lib64/libgegl-0.0.so
/usr/lib64/libgegl-0.0.la
/usr/lib64/libgegl-0.0.so.0

moved them to another folder, ldconfig was clean

thanks jschiwal
