After updating package “rpm.rte” on 2 AIX Host to latest Version from AIX Toolbox it seems like this update damaged the symlink structure to rpm libraries. On one host I was able to fix them but on the second one the problem keeps existing. Normal rpm commands like “rpm -qa” work fine.

At this point I run out of ideas. Link structure is similar to working host. Is there any way to get more or debugging information from qna and inspector ?
