I have the same versions and the same links in /lib/ldconfig on my
system and everything works without anything in ld.so.conf. It doesn't
make sense for ldconfig to fail completly on some systems.

Please file a bug report about this with libc6. Maybe the maintainers
have more insight.


This is happening to me, too. Not with VMWare, specifically, but 
ldconfig isn't seeing the symlinks in /lib/ldconfig. If I add the 
directory lines back to /etc/ld.so.conf it works fine.


Did anybody file a bug? I looked but the list of open bugs for libc6 is 
huge. If nobody has filed a bug yet, then I will.

AFAICS searching /lib/ldconfig for symbolic links is not
documented, at least not on the manpage for ldconfig. Maybe
thats on purpose, and we rely upon a feature that is not
completed yet?

I managed to track the problem down with the help of Ivan Ivanic (at
least that's what /whois says). ldconfig only follows entries in
/lib/ldconfig that have d_type=DT_LINK set in their direntry
structure. Unfortunately reiserfs always sets d_type=DT_UNKNOWN. Glibc
docs mention that in such a case one has to stat the entries themself
and ldconfig didn't do that.

A fix is pending. Till then just keep /emul/ia32-linux/usr/X11R6/lib
in ld.so.conf.
