I just downloaded/installed memcached on a RHEL 5.3 box.  I did:
./configure
make
make install
make test

and the ‘make test’ blew up with:

[r...@cag-dl145-01 memcached-1.2.6]# make test
prove ./t
t/00-startup........./tmp/memcached-1.2.6/memcached-debug: error while
loading shared libraries: libevent-1.4.so.2: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory
/tmp/memcached-1.2.6/memcached-debug: error while loading shared
libraries: libevent-1.4.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory

But libevent-1.4.so.2 IS installed in /usr/local/lib/libevent-1.4.so.2

So I then tried to look at the memcached FAQ [http://code.google.com/p/
memcached/wiki/Start] and found an entry called: How can I install
memcached? which in turn points to 
http://blog.ajohnstone.com/archives/installing-memcached
which doesn’t exist, so I’m stuck.  Can anyone help?  I gotta believe
I’m doing something silly but just don’t know what.

btw - I originally tried sending this to '[email protected]'
and it bounced.
