Have a closer look at it. Is it a symbolic link to a file that is missing?

I have a /usr/lib/libtag.so.1, but no /usr/lib/libtag.so

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /sbin/ldconfig  -p | fgrep libtag
        libtag.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libtag.so.1

Other than that, the command, while being unneccessarily repetitive, looks fine

Cheers, Rex



I had a look in the /usr/lib/ directory, and both files appeared to be there, libtag.so and libtag.so.1. I tried making a symlink to libtag.so, and it said 'file exists'. That's what made me think something else must be missing. I'll try 'ldconfig' tonight when I get home.

Thanks,
David

Yes, you were right, Rex. I had closer look at the /usr/lib/libtag.so file, and indeed it pointed to a file which had been deleted a while ago. One thing that caught me out was that there were two separate copies of libtag.so, one in /usr/lib, and the other in /usr/local/lib. Once I created a new link to /usr/lib/libtag.so, the 'make' command worked correctly.

Thanks for your help,
David
