Package: autoconf Version: 2.69-1 Severity: normal This issue was originally reported at https://github.com/brianb/mdbtools/issues/12
mdbtools build several libraries that get installed in /usr/local/lib
"make install" rules generated by configure generated by autoconf runs
ldconfig -n /usr/local/lib
and yield a big warning:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib
If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
during execution
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
during linking
- use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
- have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'
See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
File /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf is
----------------------------------------------------------------------
# libc default configuration
/usr/local/lib
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ldconfig -n create the symlinks /usr/local/lib/libmdb.so.2 and simmilar
but it does *not* rebuild the cache. See ldconfig(8): -n implies -N.
So if I have not installed any mdb* packages, and only installed from the
sources, when I run 'mdb-ver -M', I get
/usr/local/bin/mdb-ver: error while loading shared libraries: libmdb.so.2:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If I run "ldconfig" after make install, the ld cache is rebuilt, and it works.
I expected make install to update ld cache.
