hello

i have a centos 5.2 server running on 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5.028stab060.8

and have some vms builded from centos-5-i386-minimal-5.2-20090117.tar.gz

now i have do a yum update on the host system and get centos 5.3

on the vms now i get this message, when i want to execute rpm or yum:

[root@mx2 /]# rpm
rpm: error while loading shared libraries: libelf.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[root@mx2 /]# yum
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

libelf.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.4.3 (#1, May 24 2008, 13:47:28)
[GCC 4.1.2 20070626 (Red Hat 4.1.2-14)]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to
the yum faq at:
http://wiki.linux.duke.edu/YumFaq

[root@mx2 /]#

any tips?

thanks
zeki
