>Description:
I've been running with rcNG for a while, but I've only just
noticed this problem. When I rebooted last, I got this message:
Recovering vi editor sessions:/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libsasl2.so.2" not found
.
After a little bit of nosing around, I realised that it's because I
have postfix installed as my MTA, linked against the SASL library. The
thing that came immediately after that error on my boot sequence was:
ELF ldconfig path: /usr/lib /usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib
a.out ldconfig path: /usr/lib/aout /usr/lib/compat/aout /usr/X11R6/lib/aout
The virecover script was trying to send mail, but failing because
postfix couldn't find its libraries yet.
>How-To-Repeat:
* Set up an alternative MTA to the one in the base system. Ensure that
it is dynamically linked against something in /usr/local/lib (sasl or
ldap should do).
* Start editing a file using /usr/bin/vi.
* Kill the vi process from another terminal.
* Reboot the system.
* Watch the errors...
>Fix:
I guess that the virecover script needs to have ldconfig listed as a
depdendency. I'm not sure whether any other scripts might need this as
well...
