  except that "update-alternatives" command given there doesn't work.
while it accomplishes the following:

$ ls -l /usr/lib64/libwbclient.so.0.12
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 40 Apr 26 09:52 /usr/lib64/libwbclient.so.0.12
-> /etc/alternatives/libwbclient.so.0.12-64


$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/libwbclient.so.0.12-64
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 45 Apr 26 09:52 /etc/alternatives/libwbclient.so.0.12-64 ->
/usr/lib64/samba/wbclient/libwbclient.so.0.12

the generic library name isn't set up -- i needed to do this manually:

$ cd /usr/lib64
$ sudo ln -s libwbclient.so.0.12 libwbclient.so.0
$

and now it works.
