made a noob mistake so bear with me...
i was attempting to install ettercap based on these instructions
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...light=ettercap

as i was getting errors when attempting to launch the program saying about libnet.so.1. Says no such file or dir. so i figured there must be a problem with the symlinks so i went to remove them and redo
wanting to save time i didnt consider other files and i pressed this



/usr/lib # rm lib*
rm: libaccounts-plugins: is a directory
rm: libcanberra-0.14: is a directory
rm: libconbtui: is a directory
rm: libgconf2: is a directory
rm: libglade: is a directory
rm: libimengines: is a directory
rm: libvte4: is a directory

...to which it hit me in the face my mistake. now i cant open any apps apart from convos, web, etc because they just crash. cant open xterm either!
is there a way to restore this without reflashing? and if a reflash is necessary, if i do a backup now will this restore my mistake on the new flash? or doesnt it backup system files?
thanks in advance!l
