Hi.  I've been getting this error a lot when trying to build ports and also 
when I reboot my computer and startx.  I know the file is provided by 
gettext, but I have the latest installed, gettext-0.11.1_1, which installs 
libintl.so.2.  I tried symlinking libintl.so.1 -> libintl.so.2, which works 
temporarily, but the symlink gets deleted after rebooting and after building 
a port.  I tried ldconfig with no parameters, which totally emptied the 
hints file for shared libs.  I thought it was supposed to default to -R, 
which supposedly rescans the configured directories.  I had to reboot and am 
still not sure it's back to the way it was, but things seem to be working.

Couple of questions:

1) How do I tell the system I have libintl.so.2 installed and not 
libintl.so.1?

2) Who is deleting my symlink and why?

3) Why does ldconfig screw up your configuration when you run it w/o 
parameters, and how should I have run it instead?

Thanks.
Tom Hines
