I am using lvm2 2.0.33-r1, dynamically linked, but all of the dependent
libraries are installed in /lib, not /usr/lib.
carcharias linux # ldd /sbin/lvm
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libdevmapper.so.1.00 => /lib/libdevmapper.so.1.00 (0xb7fc3000)
libreadline.so.4 => /lib/libreadline.so.4 (0xb7f9e000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7f9a000)
libncursesw.so.5 => /lib/libncursesw.so.5 (0xb7f5b000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7e2b000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fea000)
I don't use a separate /usr partition, so there is no reason for Gentoo
to have prefered /lib to /usr/lib for these libraries. So I am pretty
sure this is the normal location for them.
