Subject: ia32-libs: ldconfig files installed in wrong directory?
Package: ia32-libs
Version: 1.15
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

*** Please type your report below this line ***

The ldconfig configuration files are installed in /lib/ldconfig.
Shouldn't they be installed in /etc/ld.so.conf.d?  They're not being
picked up by ldconfig.

Thanks!

There is no need for such a file. ld.so natively looks on all
directories of bi (or tri)-arches directories. If you need to be
convinced just run: strings /sbin/ldconfig | grep "^/lib"

Clising the bug


Binutils doesn't. And in some cases binutils looks at ld.so.conf and
It does. Well it was not the case on amd64, but it has been fixed two months ago in version 2.17-2 (see bug#369052).
I am closing the bug, please only reopen the bug if you have a testcase to show what you claim. 


thus ld.so.conf.d/*.

Or what is the point of the ld.so.conf.d files at all?
The purpose of the ld.so.conf.d files is to provide an easy way to add search directories for some packages (eg atlas), which is a lot easier than modifying the ld.so.conf directly.
It is also a way for future multiarch support to add a search path, hence the /etc.ld.so.conf.d/(host-triplet).conf in libc6. But it has nothing to do with bi-arch or tri-arch which are directly handled in the toolchain.
