Hi, this seems to be an issue of rpm therefore I've added rpm maintainer to the CC. Please, try to list and remove current installed squid(s) and install it again: list: # rpm -q squid remove: # rpm -e <listed_squid_version> (e.g. rpm -e squid-3.1.0.17-3.fc12) Then install squid again using 'yum install squid'.
It seems like the directory containing localizations has turned from a directory to symlink. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 447156 ***
