Libgcc_s.so.1 bug on Linux

After a series of package installation onto Linux machine, some errors started to popup in the log. As found from a series of Google-search, it seems to be a problem widely spread among the software on Linux platform. This has been marked as a bug for attention.

Error message would be like this:

...libgcc_s.so.1: version 'GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)...

This can happen on all kinds of software already installed onto the machine. People can barely find the cause until someone found a bug for this and suggest a fix - REMOVE IT!

However, it is safe to rename or move the problematic library to somewhere for retrieval. I would just rename it like this:

$ cd /destination_folder...
$ sudo mv libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1.bak

Sometimes you may want to check the file dependency before you take action:

$ ldd /destination_folder.../libgcc_s.so.1

The error should be gone so far.
