I've noticed that realplayer is really stupid when it comes to shared libraries. Try adding /usr/lib to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable ("export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" if you use bash. Chances are you don't have a LD_LIBRARY_PATH already, so you can use "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib"). I had the same error you did when I installed real player, and this seemed to fix everything.
