This apparently broke sshd, too it fails to start with this error: /usr/sbin/sshd: error while loading shared libraries: libcom_err.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory as a result, I am bumping up the priority of this bug report if it will allow me
for the 2nd issue, have you tried a revdep-rebuild?
