Hi, Does anyone know how I can get the system to see new libraries I have in /usr/local/lib? - I've installed a number of ports - and now when I go to compile up software it fails to find things like the ttf (freetype) library, but will find others (like the gd library)... Yet in /usr/local/lib I have listed: libttf.a libgd.a I've looked at the man page for ldconfig, and tried running: ldconfig -aout -v -R ldconfig -elf -v -R In a vain attempt to get it to re-scan the directory, but it doesn't seem to work... Can anyone offer any more info / suggestions? I've checked things through and it's definitely failing at the linking stage (i.e. it can find all the headers etc. it wants) I'm using FreeBSD 3.1 with this (i.e. ELF & AOUT libraries) -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
