Description Sebastien 2003-08-12 09:46:52 UTC 
Description of problem:
Since I upgraded glibc-2.2.5-43 to glibc-2.3.2-68, each time I want to launch a 
KDE application like kview I get this error message:

kview: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0: invalid 
ELF header

Any solutions?

Thanks in advance

/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0 ? glibc rpm certainly does not provide a file nor
link like that (only /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0, /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 and
/lib/libpthread.so.0).
Comment 2 Sebastien 2003-08-12 14:05:33 UTC 
I fixed the problem. The link was not correct. I do not know if it is because 
the installation of the new package, but I had not this issue before installing 
it.

It's a user bug of some sort.  Stray symlinks cause all kinds of problems.  If
you found out who created the symlink let us know.
