when trying to install lgtoclnt 6.12 on RH 8.0, it fails with something
similar to:

/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.29627: line 1: /lib/nsr/poin.cln: No such file or
directory
error: %post(lgtoclnt-6.1.2-1) scriptlet failed, exit status 127

Solution
create a symbolic link as follows:

ln -s /usr/lib/nsr /lib/nsr

or for those who prefer relative symlinks:

cd /lib ; ln -s ../usr/lib/nsr

this does not make any sense (AFAIK) since 6.x and 7.x do not have a
/lib/nsr, but something in 8.0 has changed (perhaps a libpath or
something in RPM?) which makes the client post installation script want
to install to and execute from  /lib/nsr rather than /usr/lib/nsr

I have been running RH 8.0 as a server and client in our backup
development environment for the past 1.5 months, the above problem being
the only issue I have encountered
