Weird Message After Updating or Installing Packages. [SOLVED]

Whever I install or update a package, or packages, on my system, I always get the following message when everything is done being installed:

/sbin/ldconfig: file /usr/lib64/libamdcaldd.so is truncated

Why would this be and how can I fix it?  It just recently started (maybe 5 days ago).  I'm sorry I can't tell you what packages I upgraded or how I changed my system when it started happening.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

It says  "No package owns libamdcaldd.so."  I'm guessing it's safe to just delete it.  Is that so?

Maybe not, you have to find out how this file was created before being able to answer your question.

Thank you for your reply.  I decided to take the risky approach a couple days ago and just go ahead and delete the file.  I've had no problems   Thanks again, everyone, for your responses.
