Hey all!
I can't run irssi due to this error:

irssi
irssi: error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[leandro@localhost leandro]$ urpmf libperl.so
perl-base:/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so

what should I do to solve it?

You may have to either make a symbolic link to the libpearl.so or export it to your user path. Probably need to check the documentation and see which one you need to do.

"export PATH=/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so:$PATH
". Then log out of X window and back in.
