That library should never be shared.  You are trying to run a 
movie player or similar application such as mplayer/xine (the 
most popular ones to show this issue) which was compiled on a 
Linux distribution which provides shared versions of these 
libraries (but should not).

The proper solution, is to download the mplayer/xine/whatever 
source code or src.rpm and recompile it on your system, then 
install it and it should just work.
