I've got cygwin but don't develop on it so I can't say. ldconfig sets the path for the linker (ld). If you specify -lMyLib you don't provide the path to the file libMyLib.a. It's got to find the file so it checks the directories in the linker path. This is generally set in ldconfig. You can also get problems with compiling for debug but using the libraries compiled for non debug (the names of functions can be different) and vice versa. Are you linking with libraries that end with a 'd' but using non debug compiler options?
