Why do you have */bin directories in there??

Run "ldconfig -v | grep <whatever_lib_you_need> and see if it appears in the output. If it appears then the problem is not the dynamic loader, its the RPM, or whatever you're trying to build/install. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L.
