Thanks for your help As you suggested I do indeed have a 64bit version called exactly the same
PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # rpm -qf /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 libpng-32bit-1.2.8-19.5 PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0 libpng-1.2.8-19.5 SO how do I tell rpm to find this and not the 32bit file? Or do I need to edit something in the rpm file?
