My plan was to wait until 1.38 is released and then re-install Geany
with GTK3. It would be a big distraction for me as I have a good
working Geany at the moment and am busy with projects.
For the record I have double checked my paths and they are the debian
defaults:
---------------------------------------------------------------
~$ sudo -i
~# echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
~$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games
---------------------------------------------------------------
I have only a very superficial knowledge of autotools, but have located
all the instances of ldconfig in Geany 1.36 source. I see how the paths
for ldconfig are set up in config.status, libtool, configure, libtol.m4.
The ubuntu fix is only in Makefile.am, Makefile, Makefile.in. Is it
possible for some distro to put ldconfig in some location not involving
sbin?
I was wondering if one could discover where ldconfig was located by
invoking 'whereis' in the autotools, and then prefixing the path to
ldconfig. Maybe this is what Lex meant by hard coding? But in this way
one is not making any assumptions about the location of ldconfig.
I really do appreciate the work you are doing here - thanks!

This is our Ubuntu hack `fix-ubuntu-libdir` that you can find in
src/Makefile.am.
Ok, so why not do exactly as autotools does, adding /sbin to path?
Sounds like a good idea if libtool is doing this already. I made a
tentative PR: https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/2661
Geoff, could you test this and see if it does fix the issue? thanks!

Colomban
