The following reply was made to PR gnu/34102; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Chris L. Bond" <cbond@twistedcircus.org> To: billf@mu.org, cbond@twistedcircus.org Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: gnu/34102: Linker doesn't search /usr/local/lib Date: Sun, 20 Jan 2002 22:21:10 -0800 (PST) That would be fantastic if adding the path to ldconfig worked. (It doesn't.) That will allow programs linked against libraries in /usr/local/lib to run, but you'll still have to include the directory with -L when you invoke ld. As an aside, ``man ldconfig'' seems a bit condescending, as if to suggest I hadn't even read the necessary documentation before submitting the report, which is obviously not the case. (I'm not familiar with these lists, though, so I'm likely just misunderstanding.) Anyway, ``ldconfig -r'' clearly reports that the directory has been included in the hints file, so unless there's something I'm missing, I still think the bug report is valid. -- Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
