particular path statements need to be put in place for applications to

to edit the
/etc/profile and add:
KDEDIR='/usr'
export KDEDIR
Second modification is in the /etc/ld.so.conf file - adding the
following and then re-running ldconfig afterwards:
/usr/lib
/usr/local/lib

This ques is directed to Stephen; would you recommend these file
changes be done on any system, as a matter of practice, to make
things run more smoothly? Or, is it only to be used if there are
apparent problems?
I have checked my /etc/profile and /etc/ld.so.conf, and these entries
are not present.
My system seems to be working OK, but as a newbie I am curious about
this.
TIA.
