For any given Linux system, the linker will search libraries in locations built in to the compilation system (I think your list is correct there), plus whatever's listed in /etc/ld.so.conf. Sometimes assisted or hampered by what's in /etc/ld.so.cache :-{
Does the linker search there too or only the dynamic one at load time ?
I thought that executables could specify a preferred location as well for use at dynamic link time, and then there's also LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc etc, must be at least 10 ways to shoot your own foot. -- Robin Becker
