I'm sure Duncan is right. Sorry for the confusion. I just did a ls -ld /usr/lib* and guessed as to the meaning. I knew it was changing though, I just guessed the wrong way. On this 2005.1 profile I get: drwxr-xr-x 148 root root 90112 Sep 27 05:42 /usr/lib drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Sep 27 05:23 /usr/lib32 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Mar 25 2005 /usr/lib64 -> lib drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Sep 15 16:23 /usr/libexec drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Apr 11 20:10 /usr/libprelude > Currently, lib is still a symlink to lib64.
