to quote him : "The ld.conf mechanism was modeled after the /etc/ld.so.conf file used by the Unix dynamic loader. It is intended to list a small number of standard directories that contain shared libraries, typically one directory for the "system" libraries (i.e. those provided by the OCaml core distribution), one for local extensions (e.g. /usr/local/lib), and perhaps one or two for especially large packages with many libraries (e.g. /usr/X11R6/lib). " his suggestion : "So, to summarize, I strongly suggest the following approach for RPMs or Debian packages: - The main Caml package can add one or two lines to ld.conf, e.g. /var/lib/ocaml/shlibs (for libraries installed by other packages) and /usr/local/lib/ocaml/shlibs (for local stuff) - Packages for additional Caml libraries install their shared libraries in /var/lib/ocaml/shlibs, either directly or via a symlink. " by the way he had also said : "(And, yes, I haven't followed this recommendation in some of the standard OCaml libraries (labltk) or some of my own extensions, but I've realized my error and intend to fix this in release 3.05.)
