Katmandude,

$mv ../lib* .
from /usr/local/ would copy(move) the folder /usr/lib into /usr/local as /usr/local/lib.

Saajha, Can you think of a way, you can simply ask the OS to boot using /usr/local/lib instead of /usr/lib to find its libraries , provided the permissions are ok on the copied files. Something like LIB_PATH or editing init interfaces? I guess that'd still be the other workaround.

PS: LD_LIBRARY_PATH / ldconfig ??? These might come handy, the command of these sorts.


# /sbin/ldconfig -n /usr/local/lib
