Re: Shared Library Problem....

I suspect he was saying that he added /usr/local/lib to
/etc/ld.so.conf.  This is (one of) the correct way(s) to do this.

/usr/local/lib is not a trusted library path for the dynamic
linker/loader (at least in Fedora).  Adding it to ld.so.conf forces the
linker/loader to consider the libraries in /usr/local/lib before
/usr/lib and /lib
