Is that this software package: *HP SNMP Agents for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
4 (x86)* (
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=15351&prodSeriesId=428936&swItem=MTX-a6620dfcdf11449fbabf79a2b6&prodNameId=428935)
?
This is what I found inside the preinstall script of that rpm:
$ rpm -qp --scripts hp-snmp-agents-8.1.1-22.rhel4.i386.rpm
[ ... ]
symbol_present()
{
SYMBOL=$1
shift
BINLIST=$*
for i in $BINLIST; do
if [ -f $i ]; then
if [ "x" != "x`grep $SYMBOL $i`" ]; then
return 1
fi
fi
done
return 0
}
BINSTOCHECK="/usr/lib/libucdmibs.so* /usr/lib/libnetsnmpmibs.so*
/usr/lib64/libu
cdmibs.so* /usr/lib64/libnetsnmpmibs.so*"
#Check whether we can link this cmaX stuff dynamically
symbol_present deinit_dlmod $BINSTOCHECK
[ ... ]
So if I interpret the above correctly, and if there are no other references
to deinit_dlmod() inside that RPM, restoring the deinit_dlmod() function is
not necessary but we just have to make sure that the above grep test passes.
