[NCLUG] any experience modifying gcc specs files?

[Gabriel L Somlo]

I'm not sure this is what you're looking for, but here it
goes anyway:  :)

If you append the path to your gcc libs at the end of

	/etc/ld.so.conf

and then run 

	/sbin/ldconfig

the linker will find your libs without users having to list
them in their $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Hope this helps,

Gabriel
