prelink -av gives me:
prelink: Can't walk directory tree /usr/lib/: Too many levels of symbolic links
This has never happened before (and I didn't install much after last time I prelinked)
Any thoughts on what's going on ?

When I run prelink I do
prelink -amRv
could one of those options be doing it? |

| Code: | | Too many levels of symbolic links |
too many things in /usr/lib (symlink to /usr/lib64), or bad symlink? |

I found that /usr/lib/lib was linking to itself. Removing it allowed prelink to finish. _________________ Leo : Linux user #95947 Blog: Løbende evaluering (danish) |
