[opensuse-factory] libncurses.so is not an ELF file
hello, when I do, just this morning, a "zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change --no-recommends" I get nearly 100 times the following additional output. This is only the last line of several other Packages. (404/424) Installieren: pim-sieve-editor-17.08.1-1.1.x86_64 ........................................................................................[fertig] Zusätzliche rpm-Ausgabe: /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libncurses.so is not an ELF file - it has the wrong magic bytes at the start. /sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libncurses.so is not an ELF file - it has the wrong magic bytes at the start. I looked into that file and it starts with: " hardscroll.o: U _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ U _nc_doalloc U _nc_hash_map_sp 0000000000000000 B _nc_oldnums U _nc_scrolln_sp 0000000000000210 T _nc_scroll_optimize 0000000000000000 T _nc_scroll_optimize_sp U SP ..." This is clearly not a libaray-file. It didn't bother me very much but this messages are annoying. What should I do? Oh I reinstalled (forces) the libncurses package, but that does not help. -- cheers Hartmut Rosch Delmenhorst ----------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

It is decidedly a linker script so that gcc -lncurses implies -ltinfo. Yes, the joys of backward compat :-/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Which means, that you should reinstall ncurses-devel as the file got corrupted. -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
thanks, I installed ncurses-devel and the messages are gone. Grüße Hartmut Delmenhorst ----------- Am 15.09.2017 um 15:19 schrieb Jiri Slaby:

Hmmm ... I've installed ncurses-devel rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libncurses.so ncurses-devel-5.9-55.6.1.x86_64 and doing ldconfig shows no message ... what does the spec file of pim-sieve-editor do here? Linker scripts are valid solutions and very handy. Werner -- "Having a smoking section in a restaurant is like having a peeing section in a swimming pool." -- Edward Burr

/usr/lib64/libncurses.so isn't an ELF file but should be a linkerscript. Does it miss the leading comment as explained in <http://devel.fedoraproject.narkive.com/tVmi6KvD/how-to-package-so-linker-scripts> ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
