"ldconfig not found in PATH"

[John Kerr Anderson <jaanders@tm.net>]

I have been getting the following message when trying use dselect:


dpkg: `ldconfig' not found on PATH.
dpkg: 1 expected program(s) not found on PATH.
NB: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and
/sbin.
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
Some errors occurred while unpacking. I'm going to configure the
packages that were installed. This may result in duplicate errors
or errors caused by missing dependencies. This is OK, only the errors
above this message are important. Please fix them and run [I]nstall again
Press enter to continue.

I don't know how to fix this, no matter what I do, I come up with this
message, can anyone help?
