Some people just revel in difficulties and this is a prime reason why 
Linux is still so bad because.

People look at it as math puzzles.

The harder the puzzle the better.

So why have an easy system if that means no difficult problems to solve?


Yes I know ldconfig is a smart thing.

However likely it is a binary that is writing to syslog and not a 
library. I could be wrong!

But just don't make it more complex than it needs to be please.

Soon you'll be talking of libs that depend on libs that depend on libs 
that tracker is depending on... ;-).

:p.

Sokoban was more fun :p.
