Eric,
No, just an old Pentium 32 bit machine. That is what is so strange.
However, I did manage to solve it by further digging on the ubuntu forums...
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/151045. I am not
running ubuntu, just debian.
The problem is with libz.so. In /usr/local/lib I have:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 13 2007-11-01 17:39 /usr/local/lib/libz.so ->
libz.so.1.2.3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 13 2007-11-01 17:39 /usr/local/lib/libz.so.1 ->
libz.so.1.2.3
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 85K 2007-11-01 17:39 /usr/local/lib/libz.so.1.2.3
In /usr/lib I have:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2009-08-13 16:37 /usr/lib/libz.so ->
libz.so.1.2.3.3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2009-08-13 16:37 /usr/lib/libz.so.1 ->
libz.so.1.2.3.3
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 80K 2009-08-04 11:54 /usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3.3
A newer version of libz is in /usr/lib as is in /usr/local/lib. I changed
/usr/local/lib to be:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 24 2009-11-10 12:33 /usr/local/lib/libz.so ->
/usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3.3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 24 2009-11-10 12:34 /usr/local/lib/libz.so.1 ->
/usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3.3
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 85K 2007-11-01 17:39 /usr/local/lib/libz.so.1.2.3
and rebooted. X came up with no problems and gdm is puring along. I will see
what happens with the next update, but I will probably just cop
libz.so.1.2.3.3 over the libz.so.1.2.3 and put the links back.
Any ideas on how to figure out where the libz.so.1.2.3 got into
/usr/local/lib?
