Hi! |

Good questions. I've been wondering the same thing myself. |

|

I also have a somewhat related question. Gentoo Linux doesn't seem to set a |
| 6 |
global LD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variable like most mainstream linux |
| 7 |
distributions (RedHat, Debian, etc.) do. I far as I can tell, this is a _good_ |
| 8 |
thing. (see http://www.visi.com/~barr/ldpath.html). However, some applications |
| 9 |
look for this variable. Is there a way, around this? Specifically, I've been |
| 10 |
looking into Webmin (http://www.webmin.com/webmin/), and trying to work up some |
| 11 |
gentoo config files for it. The top level config file seems to want |
| 12 |
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. At least that is what is in the config files for the other |
| 13 |
distributions. |
