Where is ldconfig
Hi,
In order to test my program I ran "make install".
This installed it into "/usr/local/{bin,lib}
So now in order to run the program I need to update
the ld library cache with "ldconfig".
Unfortunately it is not available by default and trying to
search for it produces following:

Unrelated to this - should I run "apt-file update" every time
I need to run a search?
Because when I tried it I got a message saying I need to run it,
because the database is empty.
Thank you.
