There is no point discussing whether we should use it or not, what is
important is to discuss *how* to use it.
There are two main ways :
1) just printing a message : error, warning or just debug ?
2) stops here, and probably returning -1 . Should we run ldconfig
before returning?

The ldconfig question in case 2 also applies to the case where we
cancel a transaction with ctrl+c (sate_interrupted).
