After updating the nvidia-libgl package from version 319.17 to 319.23 I get this error when I try to open any program:
"error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

I think the cause is that the libGL.so.1 file has been moved from /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 to /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1

ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 fixes the problem.
This task depends upon

you should check that the symlink /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 points to libGL.so.319.23, pretty sure is pointing the the old version.
also,

For some strange reason my 10th uninstall and install of the nvidia-libgl package fixed the problem since it creates the symlink to libGL.so.319.23.

Sorry for wasting your time, you can close this.

i suggest to check your filesystem, that sounds like a corruption.
