I upgraded from 2.1.6 to 2.2.1 yesterday. Everthing works
ok - execpt X11 :-(
In the X11-environment the ld.so can't find any shared lib.
But 'ldconfig -r' at console knows everything about the 
libs in /usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib:...

Error-msg in .xsession-errors:
    ld.so failed: Can't find shared library "libXaw.so.6.1"

ldconfig -r | grep Xaw\.so says:
    61:-lXaw.6.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.6.1

For none-suid/sgid-programms I worked around by setting
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. 

So I can:
 - start xdm
 - login with XLogin
 - start xclock, wm, ...

But NO xterm (suid-root)!
Any ideas?

Greetings
