I think running ldconfig as root may solve your issue.
Jesus, in a moment of pure mental instability and contrary to my normal behaviour I ran this command 'ldconfig' and it did something - but I haven't a clue what it is supposed to do! And therefore don't know what it did! :-(
That program is safe. It is run automatically each time you add a library to your system, so that the system knows where to find libraries when you start a program.
I read in the manual that it updates libraries symlinks, so that's why it may be appropriate for your case.
Thanks, Carlos, for the additional reassurances :-) . But the statement, "That program is safe.", is something which always strikes fear in me. It's like when my wife says to me, "Ummm, this tastes good!" when she is cooking a new recipe! :-D Now that I know what this ldconf does, I'll run it with the "-v" parameter and see what it is doing.
