Error description
After the installation of the Tivoli Storage Manager Client the client is not able to load the GSKit functions under some circumstances. This is caused by a misleading link to the lib directory of the GSKit library. When /usr/lib64 is present, the debian packages create symbolic links in /usr/lib64. Otherwise, the links are created in /usr/lib. This directory is not in the default PATH on Ubuntu. As a result, applications cannot find GSKit libraries at runtime. Solution: If possible remove the directory /usr/lib64 before the installation of the GSKit library. If this is not possible, the links must be created manually in /usr/lib after installation.
