Here's the output of 'strace apt-get update', which I have no idea how
to read:
***
ousetrap:/home/ocorrain# apt-get update
Segmentation fault
mousetrap:/home/ocorrain# strace apt-get update
execve("/usr/bin/apt-get", ["apt-get", "update"], [/* 16 vars */]) = 0
uname({sys="Linux", node="mousetrap", ...}) = 0
brk(0) = 0x806389c
mmap(0, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0)
= 0x40017000
open("/etc/ld.so.preload", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3
recvmsg(3, Segmentation fault
***
Any suggestions?
