[xml/sgml-pkgs] Bug#442292:

[Justin M. Keyes]

I also have this problem. I don't have a libz.so.1 in /lib, but I have
libz.so.1 in /usr/lib.

I can't run gnome, and I just get a root window in X.

This problem is preventing me from updating some packages, because
things like 'update-mime-database' and 'scrollkeeper-config' depend on
libxml2.so.2.

$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[snip]
Removing sun-java6-jre ...
update-mime-database: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2:
undefined symbol: gzopen64

Could this be caused by installing the ruby gems package manager by hand?
