Re: nmap doesn't write to a file

["sara fink" <sara.fink () gmail com>]

There is a space between -oX and file and no - instead of file name. The
weird thing is that it happened for whatever format of file I requested.

I made yesterday a mistake and deleted some libraries without running
revdep-rebuild --library first. The libraries involved were
libcrypto.so.0.9.6 libssl.so.0.9.7 and libssl.so.0.9.6

This mistake has to do something with the problem I have?
