Greetings -
Posted this to questions, but got no response...
I wanted to replace a .so module in libc.so so I did:

# cd /usr/lib
# mkdir tmp
# cd tmp
# ar x ../libc_pic.a
ar: ../libc_pic.a: Inappropriate file type or format

Although there are QUITE A FEW .so objects in /usr/lib/tmp, the RPC
objects (specifically, I'm trying to replace the hacked up clnt_udp.so
object) which should be in the libc.so appear not to be there! Looks like
the extract died before completing. Is this a bug in "ar", or am I doing
something wrong?

Can anyone shed light on this? I'd be happy to provide list of the files
which were successfully extracted, or any other info. Thanks...
- Mike
