(Rerunning the script.) It looks a bit circular. Setting up for a test: [tim@bigblack tmp]$ cd tmp [tim@bigblack tmp]$ touch libmylib.so First run: [tim@bigblack tmp]$ mv ./libmylib.so ./libmylib.so.1 [tim@bigblack tmp]$ ln -s ./libmylib.so.1 libmylib.so Second run: [tim@bigblack tmp]$ mv ./libmylib.so ./libmylib.so.1 mv: `./libmylib.so' and `./libmylib.so.1' are the same file -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.1-41.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
