Unable to find library 'libsqlplus.sl'

One user account on a Unix server, which is not belong to DBA group, is unable to use sqlplus, the following message received when typing sqlplus on the command line:

/usr/lib/pa20_64/dld.sl: Unable to find library 'libsqlplus.sl'.

This issue was fixed by changing permession of libsqlplus.sql under $ORACLE_HOME/lib from 750 to 755.

Since before yesterday, this user account did not have problem. And last night we did the patch on this server, possibly the permission was changed during the patching.

Search internet there is a thread of disscussion quite similar to our situation.
