Libtool already prints a message telling the user to run "ldconfig" or
"ldconfig -v" after installing something, so any user who watches the
installation process should know what to do.
If
modify ld.so.conf automatically, because the order
of the directories is important and some modifications could break the
whole system.
My ld.so.conf is correct (if it weren't, running ldconfig wouldn't
solve the problem). I agree that make install should not attempt to
edit ld.so.conf. Botching that
because I am so used
to running ldconfig after installing anything that I did not even
remember that I had to use it. ;-)
All that ldconfig -n does is create the links. It doesn't update the
cache. ld.so (at least on Linux) needs the cache:
You are right, I should have thought about why
