Well, this was why I asked the question originally. Dlocate -s says that ldso is in the oldlibs section and is optional, yet if you tell apt-get to remove it you are told it is essential and you have to remove it explicitly. I don't see how it can be both optional and essential. -- Anthony Campbell - running Debian GNU/Linux (Windows-free zone).
