<title>Configuring Dynamic Loader</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
By default the dynamic loader searches a few default paths for dynamic
|
|
libraries, so there normally isn't a need for the
|
|
<filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename> file unless the system has extra
|
|
directories in which a user wants the system to search for paths. The
|
|
<filename class="directory">/usr/local/lib</filename> directory isn't
|
|
searched through for dynamic libraries by default, so we want to add
|
|
this path so when a user installs software he won't be suprised by them not
|
|
running for some reason.

<para>
|
|
Create a new file <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename> by running the
|
|
following:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<literallayout>
|
|
|
|
<userinput>cat > /etc/ld.so.conf << "EOF"</userinput>
|
|
# Begin /etc/ld.so.conf
|
|
|
|
/lib
|
|
/usr/lib
|
|
/usr/local/lib
|
|
|
|
# End /etc/ld.so.conf
|
|
<userinput>EOF</userinput>
|
|
|
|
</literallayout>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Although it's not necessary to add the
|
|
<filename class="directory">/lib</filename> and
|
|
<filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename> directories it doesn't
|
|
hurt. This way it can be seen right away what's being searched and a user
|
|
doesn't have
|
|
to remeber the default search paths if he doesn't want to.
