solved with ldconfig .Tnx.
Forgot to post my thanks some hours ago due to late hour here.

When you say that I am bumping in adventures...IMHO some packages are
pushed out as adventurously as my testing capacity :-).


After latest updates (I mean only the pack of yesterday):
 login greeter is not working any more so I have to start level 3 and
issue startx
USB disks are not mounted
sound icon is "dirty" in application bar

I have to file separate bugs or check if already filed

Tnx again
