Hello,

I recently installed a new Red Hat 5.2 system and had wu-ftpd 2.4.2b18-1
working great.  I tried to upgrade it today.  I got the new rpm from
ftp://ftp.infomagic.com/pub/mirrors/linux/RedHatContrib/libc6/i686/

I install the new RPM from infomagic...

[root@webhost ben] rpm -Uvh wu-ftpd-2.4.2b18-2.1
#####################################

Then I tried to ftp and got this error:

[root@localhost ben]# ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.
in.ftpd: error in loading shared libraries
ftp> 

Here is some more output that may help

[root@localhost sbin]# ./in.ftpd
./in.ftpd: error in loading shared libraries
: undefined symbol: __register_frame_info

[root@localhost sbin]# ldd ./in.ftpd
libpam.so.0 => /lib/libpam.so.0 (0x40003000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4000a000)
libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x4000d000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4003b000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00000000) 

System Information:
-------------------
Linux Red Hat 5.2 i686 2.0.36

Please any feedback is much appreciated.  I have no idea.  If you need
more information just let me know

Thanks,
Ben

I'd suggest not bothering with the Beta-18 release.  It has security
problems and you don't want it.

The location of the latest versions of wu-ftpd can be found in the 
directory
