How did you configure, what's ./libtool --features ./libtool --config ? I think we can't really test ldconfig at configure time because it may be accessible to root only (and thus only available at make install time). I'm not sure whether we can take cross-compilation as a reason for not running it though. Another problem is that, at `libtool --finish' time, we cannot really know if the libraries we just installed (we don't even know which they were!) were static-only or not; anyway running ldconfig usually doesn't hurt. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/src/urbi/kernel1 $ sudo make install -C _build/aibo/src > PATH="$PATH:/sbin" ldconfig -n /usr/local/gostai/kernel/mipsel-linux/aibo > ../libtool: line 1: ldconfig: command not found > > As you can see ldconfig is run although the library is not > dynamic (and besides, it's cross-compiled, so I'm not sure > it makes sense anyway, but how could it know it?).

But people do uglier things all the time...
