Re: Replace /etc/ld.so.conf by /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf files?

Hi,

since glibc 2.3.4, ldconfig understands include directives in
/etc/ld.so.conf.  I had a  look at Fedora glibc.src.rpm, and
it seems that they indeed put a single line
  include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
into their /etc/ld.so.conf, so that packages can ship their
own conffile if needed (and the .conf suffix ensures that ldconfig
ignores files generated by dpkg when handling conffiles).

I am really interested to have that implemented in *etch*. Because for multiarch we have added support for /lib/ldconfig which basically do the same (but with a symlink to the library directory), but is not supported by upstream.

If this feature (/lib/ldconfig) goes to etch, we will have to support it later...
