hi all i'm a total newbie and
i think my ld is giving me trouble, it cannot find the libraries i want to
use, if i compile with the -L option then everything works fine, ldconfig
tells me that the files are there and the hints are ok, i've even tried
setting the LD_LBRARY_PATH variable to no avail.

in linux i knew you could just edit the ld.so.conf file and run ldconfig,
and the linker would work.
any help would be appreciated
thanks
