I agree we are not trying to run the binary here, but I am still puzzled here... Basically, gcc -o a.out foo.o -L/.../hcoll/lib -lhcoll and libhcoll.so depends on libsharp.so (that is in /.../sharp/lib) 1) do you expect this to just work even if the linker has no idea where to find libsharp.so ? No, of course not. :-) That's what the additional -L was for. 2) if not, how should the linker find libsharp.so without relying on LD_LIBRARY_PATH? LD_LIBRARY_PATH is for the linker to use at run time -- I didn't think it was used at compile/link time, is it? -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com<mailto:jsquy...@cisco.com>
