This is in my view an Ubuntu bug for not allowing the normal RPATH mechanism, and given that they don't, that it wasn't documented well enough that you noticed :-) But apparently adding /usr/local/lib to the ld.so.conf is the plan. I wonder what the docs said about how files in /etc/ld.so.conf.d are ordered, both among themselves, and relative to the built-in search path, but that's not about guile. > After doing this, running `ldconfig` resulted in this error > /sbin/ldconfig.real: /usr/local/lib/libguile-3.0.so.1.7.1-gdb.scm is not an > ELF file - it has the wrong magic bytes at the start. > > 2.

I don't think there are any rules in the larger POSIX ecosystem about not having files that aren't ELF libs in $prefix/lib. I see this as a self-inflicted wound by Ubuntu's ld.so.conf decision; normally a file in $prefix/lib is only even opened if there is a NEEDED/RPATH combination that references it. It may be that having .so in it somwehere is the issue. There are non-ELF files in lib mnormally. FWIW on my system: $ ls -l /usr/pkg/guile/3.0/lib/ total 4120 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Dec 6 2022 guile -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2657138 Apr 26 05:46 libguile-3.0.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1063 Apr 26 05:46 libguile-3.0.la lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 Apr 26 05:46 libguile-3.0.so -> libguile-3.0.so.1.7.1 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 Apr 26 05:46 libguile-3.0.so.1 -> libguile-3.0.so.1.7.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1486880 Apr 26 05:46 libguile-3.0.so.1.7.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 17469 Apr 26 05:46 libguile-3.0.so.1.7.1-gdb.scm drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Apr 26 05:47 pkgconfig > Below is the output of ldd and objdump for context > ldd: > zymus@abyss:~/src/guile-3.0.11$ ldd /usr/local/bin/guile > linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc61064000) > libguile-3.0.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libguile-3.0.so.1 (0x00007aecfc4e7000) > libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007aecfc200000) > libgc.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgc.so.1 (0x00007aecfc472000) > libffi.so.8 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libffi.so.8 (0x00007aecfc465000) > libunistring.so.5 => /usr/local/lib/libunistring.so.5 (0x00007aecfc017000) > libgmp.so.10 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgmp.so.10 (0x00007aecfbf95000) > libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00007aecfc429000) > libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007aecfbeae000) > /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007aecfc64a000) > > objdump: > zymus@abyss:~/src/guile-3.0.11$ objdump -x /usr/local/bin/guile | egrep > NEEDED\|RPATH > NEEDED libguile-3.0.so.1 > NEEDED libc.so.6 So missing RPATH as you already determined, but otherwise looks fine to me. Did guile insttall unistring, or did you have to build that too?
