Hey Peter:

I suggest you un-install all the ganglia packages and start fresh...

When you remove the ganglia packages, is /var/lib/ganglia still there?
If so, I would remove it and try installing all the packages again.

Cheers,

Bernard

P.S. I have all the same RPM packages as you do, though I do not have
the libs installed.
