>From my understanding, ldconfig is supposed to be taking care of the
symlinks for the libxxxx.so files.  My thoughts on this are that when the
install of the libraries in question happen, it doesn't run an ldconfig to
update the links.  There could be a number of reasons for this, so I'm not
pointing the finger at the Makefile.

One thing to try is, if you notice the links are missing, try running an
ldconfig.  I'd do it but the builds I've tried from CVS don't build their
RPMS right yet.  Some stuff hasn't been properly converted to the new
"auto-f'ck" setup.

I'll probably be investigating this more this weekend though, even if for
my own edumacation.
