Hi, Many thanks Klaus. My mistake was putting duff information in the e-mail ;) I checked /etc/ld.so.conf and it contained /usr/local/lib.
However, running ldconfig cured the problem. I'm not sure what the problem was in the end, but I will look into it a bit more. Up and running! Wahay! Cheers!

I think you should rather include /usr/local/lib not bin. After you've checked that you should execute ldconfig as root (which wouldn't hurt anyway). regards Klaus ---------- Our communications with you matter to us.
