Matti,

Thank you for responding. Your very last paragraph is 
particularly important for me.  This and few other issues 
convince me that I am on the wrong path - VM is not a good place 
to experiment.  VM adds to the uncertainties of the process.  It 
would be better to have an pristine OS installed in a separate 
partition and experiment there.  It probably would be better to 
do this on a spare older PC, so that daily activities are not 
interrupted.

One thing that I believe is worth mentioning for the benefit of 
others, is that  "ldconfig  -a" does not like the -a option:
---
a...@supremo:~$ sudo ldconfig -a
/sbin/ldconfig.real: invalid option -- 'a'
Try `ldconfig.real --help' or `ldconfig.real --usage' for more 
information.
a...@supremo:~$
--- 

Thank you for your patience and informative advice.

Al.
