As said in the "DESCRIPTION" part of the manpage for ldconfig: "ldconfig creates the necessary links and cache to the most recent shared libraries found in the directories specified on the command line, in the file /etc/ld.so.conf, and in the trusted directories (/lib and /usr/lib)." Shortly that means that it refreshes its cache from everything specified on command line, /etc/ld.so.conf and the directories /lib and /usr/lib. -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards, Kim Ingemann http://pingvinland.dk/
