While installing a package, why yum/rpm/up2date command failed with error "/usr/lib/libcpqlsptransport.so.0 is not a symbolic link" ?
Issue
-
When trying to install a package using yum/rpm/up2date, I am getting error ldconfig: /usr/lib/libcpqlsptransport.so.0 is not a symbolic link.
-
Why ldconfig complains about /usr/lib/libcpqlsptransport.so.0 ?
Eg:
[root@server1 ~]# yum -y update
