I had an issue with one lib file missing and it was due to a different
repository (atrpms) missing the library in their version of the RPM.
When I updated the rpm it removed the FC lib.
I have filed a bug report.
This is one issue of using different repositories.
I traced the problem by finding which package was to supply the
missing lib and then comparing the package from atrpms and FC.
