On my Raspberry Pi, with Debian Squeeze, I want to link to the shared objects in /opt/vc/lib. I have added this directory to a file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ which is included in /etc/ld.so.conf. The compiler/linker runs without error, but upon execution, the program complains about missing .so files. Running ldd confirms that the libs cannot be found, but running ldconfig -v, after running ldconfig, shows the libs are in the cache.

What can cause this problem?

Did you run sudo ldconfig? Are the libs/dir listed in output from ldconfig -v? The linker and loader are two different things (ldd vs ld). – XTL Nov 26 '12 at 6:30

Yes I have checked both of these things. – derekdreery Dec 11 '12 at 14:33
What exactly is the message about .so files? – XTL Dec 12 '12 at 7:26

Try appending your path to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable and re-compiling. The only other thing i know would be to create links to your libraries in one of the standard library locations.

I have actually already tried both of these things already, without success. – derekdreery Nov 29 '12 at 14:32

Are you actually passing the correct linker flags to gcc?
