Maybe you just need symbolic links to the new libraries.

For example:

ln -s /mylibrary/location/libplist.so /usr/lib/libplist.so.1




Maybe use the ‘find’ command to get a lists of ????.so candidates to point to.

For example you can see which candidates are connected to others with:

find /usr/lib -iname ‘*libplist.so*’ | while read AFILE;do    ls -l “${AFILE}”;    done




You won't find anything if the library is not there.
