* Marcus Brinkmann | Sure, evms seems only to be available on GNU/Linux, too. But just because | it happens to work by chance it is no excuse to do the wrong thing. People | might take it as an example and use it in their own software, where it | doesn't work (on GNU/Hurd, and other systems).
Then please propose or write a tool which creates the proper symlinks from the sonames of the libraries and get it included in debianutils or some other reasonable please. Until there is a tool which does that, people will not stop using ldconfig -n, because it works fine for the platforms most people use. I know that it doesn't make your life easier, but when Hurd is the odd one out, you will often have to create tools which work on all platforms. -- Tollef Fog Heen Unix _IS_ user friendly... It's just selective about who its friends are.
