Removed libX11.so.6

haib610 · September 24, 2016, 4:45am

I accidentally typed :

rm /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6

So where i can download it again to fix that ?

Search in Yast->Software Management for libX11-6

It is in the Update repository (Oss originally).

Hi,

zypper can do that as well plus an added bonus you can tell zypper not to do a refresh of the online repos if you’re on a limited internet data/plan.

The syntax is

zypper --no-refresh se --provides /path/to/file

Note the global option –no-refresh for more info run

zypper help se

And to put it all together.

zypper --no-refresh se --provides /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6
