The what and how of LD_LIBRARY_PATH and example from
redhat 7.3 and fedora FC3 FC8

The file /etc/ld.so.conf contains a list of paths (separated by newlines) that will be searched by ldconfig for libraries. You can edit it and add (or remove) a few lines and then run ldconfig (as root) to update the cache.

partial man page list of ldconfig.
/sbin/ldconfig ldconfig creates the necessary links and cache to the most recent shared libraries found in the directories specified on the command line, in the file /etc/ld.so.conf, and in the trusted directories (/lib and /usr/lib).

my redhat 7.3
[ 1235 ] > cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/qt-1.45/lib
/usr/lib/wine
/usr/lib/qt2/lib
/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/lib/sane

/usr/local/lib
/usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/lib

my fedora core 3, default from original install and updates and installed packages. but I guess from orig install.
[ 542 ] > cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/mysql

my fedora core 8 has new convention of creating a directory of conf files and including those config files. default from original install and updates and installed packages. but I guess from orig install.

[ 3 ] > cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
[ 8 ] > ls /etc/ld.so.conf.d/
mysql-i386.conf qt-i386.conf
