Hello.
Many Unix/Linux source codes and their configure script often
requires ldconfig.
That's poor design on the part of the developers. The whole point of
autoconf (which generates the configure script) is to make the program
compile on as many platforms as possible, and ldconfig is not on all
platforms...
FWIW: We don't require ldconfig either, none of our scripts use it.
Ldconfig is used a lot on Linux and Unix boxes to set up the loader
cache, so the dynamic loader can find libraries it needs to link
with an executable when you try to start said executable.
