$ apt-cache search spidermonkey

libsmjs-dev - Development files for the SpiderMonkey JS library
libsmjs1 - The Mozilla SpiderMonkey JavaScript library
spidermonkey-bin - Binaries of the SpiderMonkey interpreter
spidermonkey-dev - Migration package for the SpiderMonkey JS library
spidermonkey1 - Migration package for the SpiderMonkey JS library

.. mind you, this is debian stable (sarge).. and since the
ecmascript.txt document only mentions testing and unstable, it may
still be  necessary to do a tarball install of spidermonkey(?)

To recap,  the way I understand the new doc, what I should have done is:

$ apt-get libsmjs1 libsmjs-dev spidermonkey-bin spidermonkey-dev
$ cd ../elinks; ./configure; make; make install

.. with the result that libjs lib would have been installed in
/usr/lib/ .. this making a non-issue of my ldconfig problem, right?

.. or did I also need to apt-get spidermonkey1? 

.. or would installing the two -dev packages have pulled all other
necessary packages?

At least to me this is still not very clearly explained in the revised
version of the ecmascript.txt document.

Anyway, just my 2cents.. 

Thanks
