Hi,

I have a problem compiling postfix with mysql support, make complains about
a missing libmysqlclient.so.12

i know it is a dynamic linked libraries problem and i managed to solve it by
creating a /etc/ld.so.conf file containing the path to the mysql libs.

BUT, i read on the ELF Faq that it was a bad thing to do (too bad since it's
so easy) and i'd like to do it properly thanks to ELF


The problem is that i've read the FAQs and ELF man pages but i don't
understand anything about how it works.

Please help


Greg.
