Puzzling over the use of ldconfig. As I understand it ldconfig can be used to rebuild/locate all the shared libraries. It looks in ld.so.conf for the directories to use. In my case ld.so.conf has one line in it:
"include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf" I have 3 conf files in ld.so.conf.d. libc.conf: /usr/local/lib x86_64-linux-gnu.conf: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu i386-linux-gnu.conf: /lib/i386-linux-gnu /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu If I $ sudo rm /etc/ld.so.cache and $ sudo ldconfig -v, I get the message /sbin/ldconfig.real: Path `/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu' given more than once /sbin/ldconfig.real: Path `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu' given more than once Why would this happen? Is this ok? I haven't gotten to my actual question yet, but this is puzzling me. Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, if this matters. I'm trying to figure out if things are ok enough to ask why the linker can't find a file, even though I see it in ldconfig. Maybe what I am asking is how to force a new configuration after deleting the ld.so.cache. _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
