Mike, Great news!
I've always wondered whether applications that build shared libraries on linux should kick off ldconfig automatically when finishing the install, and perhaps even have built in checks for whether the install location is mapped in the ld.so.conf. Sure seems like it would save some head-scratching. :) I've noticed that apt-get does it as a package management system. Anyone have opinions about whether this is a bad idea, and if not, how to do it?
