  • 1.  Could not load program zip: /usr/lib/libbz2.a (libbz2.so.1).

    Posted Thu January 19, 2023 11:38 AM

    Application team is getting python working with gcc, but I found this error in the meantime, which may mean something else related to libgcc may need fixing: 
    zip -r temp.zip python_user_pkgs/

    Could not load program zip:

    Could not load module /usr/lib/libbz2.a(libbz2.so.1).

            Dependent module /usr/lib/libgcc_s.a(shr.o) could not be loaded.

            The module has an invalid magic number.

    Could not load module zip.

            Dependent module /usr/lib/libbz2.a(libbz2.so.1) could not be loaded.

    I need help to determine what is missing. Has anyone run in to this before?

    Sounds like your box needs updating with dnf.

    I have an AIX 7.3 system with that latest fixpack and dnf updates from the OSS ISO IBM provides. It has /usr/lib/libbz2.a as a symlink to /opt/freeware/lib/libbz2.a and that archive file has a single member of libbz2.so.1. That archive file is provided by bzip2-1.0.8-2.ppc.

    # ar t /opt/freeware/lib/libbz2.a
    libbz2.so.1    ​

    It does not have a /usr/lib/libgcc_s.a which makes me think you have some outdated software there. I have zip-3.0-4.ppc installed and it works correctly.
