ati-fglrx-8.14.13.1-0.lvn.5.4

     Does anyone understand how the livna fglrx rpms are supposed to
handle the symlink for /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1? Everytime I upgrade
the kernel-module-fglrx package with yum, I find this symlink is set
to libGL.so.1.2.backup. However this doesn't seem to be the correct
size for the copy installed at /usr/lib/ati-fglrx/libGL.so.1.2. Since
ATI recommends using their libGL.so I find this very confusing. Instead
it sets the symlink to libGL.so.1.2.backup which on my machine has
an ancient timestamp of...

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 541976 Jun  2  2004 libGL.so.1.2.backup

I have been manually resetting this symlink to...

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     31 Jul 18 11:48 libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/ati-fglrx/libGL.so.1.2

What is supposed to be the correct behavior and how can I rid myself of
ths stale libGL.so.1.2.backup shared libs properly. That is I don't
understand who that file should belong to...it doesn't seem to be the
correct size of either the file from xorg-x11-Mesa-libGLU-6.8.2-37
or from ati-fglrx-8.14.13.1-0.lvn.5.4. Thanks in advance for any
clarifications.
