Bug#255004: relocation error

[rgogilvie@cc.usu.edu, 255004@bugs.debian.org]

This was happening on my system because I had older versions of some
shared libraries /usr/local/lib than in /usr/lib.  Apparently the stuff in 
/usr/local/lib is given precedence, because after renaming (eh, deleting)
the links in /usr/local/lib that had newer versions in /usr/lib, meaning
the same link _name_ pointing to a newer actual library, things like gaim
and mozilla-bin and gftp, etc. started working again.  (I'm assuming the 
applications check the other directory upon failure to find the shared
libraries in /usr/local/lib).

I hope this helps.  I also hope I didn't just spam a bunch of people.
This is my first attempt to provide any feedback to the nice folks who
create and maintain my favorite operating system.  I'm very open to
suggestions about protocol.

Cheers,

Russell
