Well, then, I suppose the LFS gang needs to all get on the same page.
The Readline and Shadow instructions don't agree with what you say
above.

All the linker scripts that come with GNU binutils search /lib before /usr/lib; if you put a .so (non-versioned) symlink into /lib, then the one in /usr/lib is pointless, it will never get used.


Also, ldconfig will not keep that link updated, because its target is not in the same directory.

My opinion is that the .so and .so.version symlinks should only be in the directory where the actual shared object resides.
