Getting back to this. I'm curious if there is a specific reason why
the *.so symlink was not there? Adding the ".0" shouldn't be
necessary. But there may be a reason for not including the .so
symlink that I am not aware of.
My default install in /usr/local/lib shows:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2008-07-30 16:59
/usr/local/lib/libnfsidmap_nsswitch.so ->
libnfsidmap_nsswitch.so.0.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2008-07-30 16:59
/usr/local/lib/libnfsidmap_nsswitch.so.0 ->
libnfsidmap_nsswitch.so.0.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17141 2008-07-30 16:59
/usr/local/lib/libnfsidmap_nsswitch.so.0.0.0
Thanks,
K.C.
