Yes, that's how you do it. env-update goes through all files it finds in /etc/env.d/ and adds all the LDPATH statements together to create one large environment variable. The order of these paths are important as they are searched in the order they appear in the environment variable. So the files in /etc/env.d/ have two digits in front of the name so you can order them the way you want. Files starting with 00 are done first, 99 last > > > Looks like a classic case of Adobe *nix-cluelessness > > > > Combined with my classic *nix-cluelessness regarding libraries and > paths... :) LDPATH works the same way as PATH, it just applies to finding libraries. PATH applies to finding programs. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
