Hello All,
We are running into issues with application running shared application looking for the *.so file.
The file system only has the *.so.1, *.so.1.0 files. ( with the major and minor versions).

netfpproxy.out -p /usr/lib/netfp_proxy/plugins/netfpproxy_plugin.so -d 10 -v
netfpproxy.out: error while loading shared libraries: libnl-xfrm.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file o
r directory

I am pretty new to this. Any ideas on what may be wrong here is appreciated?
With regards,
Sam

Sam,

Looks like something was not built properly. Most probably, at the time of 
compiling/linking, there was only .so of the library available, and not 
corresponding .so.X and/or .so.X.Y and the linker ended up hardcoding the 
version-less library dependency in the app binary.
