>Description:
Recent changes to the ldconfig command require that the -aout
switch be used when configuring the search path for aout libs. The
src/tools/tools/upgrade/move_aout_libs.sh script moves libs, then rebuilds
the lib search path using ldconfig; however, it uses ldconfig without the
-aout switch, and on systems where ELF is the default objformat, this only
succeeds in building a bogus ELF lib search path, and doesn't affect the
aout lib search path at all.
>How-To-Repeat:
# sh /usr/tools/tools/upgrade/move_aout_libs.sh /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib
>Fix:
I'm not sure if this tool is ever intended to be used on
non-current systems or not... If it is then a few conditionals will
need to be added to this patch:
