I've recently upgraded my installation. While I was attempting to clean up the RPM Database, I noticed that the (rpm -Va) command indicated that several libraries were missing. The output looked like this: missing /lib/libform.so.1 missing /lib/libform.so.1.9.9e missing /lib/libform.so.3 missing /lib/libform.so.3.0 missing /lib/libform.so.4 missing /lib/libform.so.4.2 missing /lib/libmenu.so.1 missing /lib/libmenu.so.1.9.9e missing /lib/libmenu.so.3 missing /lib/libmenu.so.3.0 missing /lib/libmenu.so.4 missing /lib/libmenu.so.4.2 missing /lib/libpanel.so.1 missing /lib/libpanel.so.1.9.9e missing /lib/libpanel.so.3 missing /lib/libpanel.so.3.0 missing /lib/libpanel.so.4 missing /lib/libpanel.so.4.2 Well, I took what I thought was the correct approach and used the rpm -qf /lib/libform.so.1 and found that the ncurses rpm had not been updated. SO I updated the package using the familiar 'rpm -Uvh' command. The problem persists! Not only that, but the current package has nothing to do with the /lib/libform.so.1 file, which is still being reported as missing. What's wrong here? How can I utilize the RPM command set to determine what files are missing or outdated? -- Albert E.
