setting lib path

[John Maheu <jmaheu@raemac.econ.ualberta.ca>]

I just installed a program that has a dynamically linked library. I placed
the lib in /usr/local/lib and added "/usr/local/lib/" to /etc/ld.so.conf
and ran ldconfig as root. However, the lib wasn't found, but putting the
lib in /lib works fine. What more should I do to get /usr/local/lib
searched by ld.so?

Thanks
John
