CentOS 6.8 with Rocks Cluster: ldconfig is not a symbolic link errors

UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

Any help appreciated just logging in to this server which is a front end for Rocks Cluster 6.1.1. Getting the below errors:

ldconfig

ldconfig: /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 is not a symbolic link
ldconfig: /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 is not a symbolic link
ldconfig: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 is not a symbolic link
ldconfig: /usr/lib/libXcomp.so.3 is not a symbolic link
ldconfig: /usr/lib/libz.so.1 is not a symbolic link
ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so.0 is not a symbolic link
ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libgsl.so.0 is not a symbolic link

file /usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so.0

/usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so.0: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, stripped

I also get this error when running yum check dependencies

reportlab-2.5-1.x86_64 has missing requires of libpython2.7.so.1.0()(64bit)

But it's here, so not sure if they are related:

/opt/python/lib/libpython2.7.so.1.0

/etc/ld.so.conf

include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/lib64
/usr/lib64
/usr/kerberos/lib64
/opt/python/lib
/usr/lib

Noticed you posted the exact same question (full cut and paste) over at the Centos forums. Seems normal, I am assuming, to cut and paste user questions into different forums; but don't expect to get a lot of help if you are going to use this kind of "cut and paste" my questions in various forums tactic.

I appreciate the candor I found the CentOS forum after this one and I guess I could've deleted this thread but I was hoping someone here or there would think it's an easy fix.

Well I partially solved this. The files were a duplicate of each other so:

diff /usr/lib/libz.so.1 /usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3

And no difference. So I moved all of the file like /usr/lib/libz.so.1 to my home directory and created a symbolic link a la this:

ln -s /usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3 /usr/lib/libz.so.1

I did it for all of the files listed and afterwards no more errors with ldconfig. So I'm still left with this error:

yum check dependencies
reportlab-2.5-1.x86_64 has missing requires of libpython2.7.so.1.0()(64bit)
Error: check ['dependencies']
