Hi,
I've discovered that, if I start out installing systems "small" (eg. w/o packages, and w/o xbase), ld doesn't know where to find a lot of the required libraries. When I install a package, I usually want to run the associated software without further tweaking, but before I can do so, I have to first go around and manually run something like # ldconfig -m /usr/X11R6/lib and/or # ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib to get things going. I thought that this could be automated somehow. Eg, while parsing the PLIST files, if there are directories not already known to ld, merge appropriate directories on the fly. Just a thought... -- Kind regards, --Toni++
