Hello.

My friend Arthur Demchenkov says he found a bug in nALFS-1.2.5 that causes the /etc/ld.so.conf file to be corrupted under certain conditions.

Here's the original message that Arthur sent to me:

8<----------------------------------------
There's a bug in nALFS-1.2.5
It's located in "search and replace" subroutine.
I found that when I reinstalled Xorg my ld.so.conf file was corrupted...
You can check if the bug appear in your nALFS version.
1) Place the example ld.so.conf file in your /etc directory
2) Run blfs-profile
3) Chapter 25 -> xorg 6.8.2 -> Installing -> Search and replace and Dump text (not really necessary)
4) As you can see ld.so.conf is corrupted, I hope you made backup ;-)

The bug will be reproduced also when making replacing in the end of any file. So there may be a need in checking if your profiles corrupt some user packages.

Best regardz.

Seems like an edge-case situation, but I have confirmed there is corruption, and I've applied the fix to SVN. Thanks for the report.
