Thanks for the advice. I don't see anything in there. pauljohn@pjlap-124:dpkg$ pwd /etc/dpkg pauljohn@pjlap-124:dpkg$ grep -r libc * pauljohn@pjlap-124:dpkg$ Those files are empty pauljohn@pjlap-124:dpkg$ cat shlibs.default # dpkg shlibs defaults file # # This file contains shlibs entries that are used as a last resort when # no matching entries are found elsewhere.
