In trying to link a simple Xlib program (under Slackware 10), I came across the following puzzling problem:
Even though /usr/X11R6/lib is present in ld.so.conf and I ran ldconfig to double-check, when I do the ff:
gcc xprog.c -lX11
I get an "unable to find -lX11" message from ld. I have to specify /usr/X11R6/lib explicitly using -L in order to get to get gcc (or ld) to find libX11.
Anyone have any clues as to what's going on?
