Are you sure of that? I always assumed that shared libraries are just files and once a file is replaced the normal rules apply, i.e. anything that opened it before the replacement gets the old version, anything that opens it afterwards gets the new one. That's how inconsistencies can arise. poc -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
