I am trying to build gphoto2 for an old system (Fedora 11) where I store photos. (gphoto2 exists as part of the download in Fedora19)
In any case, I do the configure/make/make install for both libgphto2 and gphoto2 with no problems, so it would seem that the loader at this point is seeing the library.
But when I try to execute gphoto2, I get the message
gphoto2: error while loading shared libraries: libgphoto2.so.6:
cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
the library is in /usr/local/lib, so the directory IS being searched. I vaguely remember this problem from some years ago, but forget the
solution.
Anyone remember how to work around this?

Is there some aspect of the current, supported Fedora releases that makes them unsuitable for storing photos?
I concur, Pete, but there's probably some weird reason the OP needs F11 (even though it's, what, five years old).
IIRC, the problem is that the OP needs to add
/usr/local/lib64
to his /etc/ld.so.conf file, or create an "/etc/ld.so.conf.d/local.conf" file containing that line, then run (as the root user):
ldconfig -v
This should ensure that the run-time linker looks in /usr/local/lib64 for libraries in addition to the usual spots. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@alldigital.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - "Yeah, but you're taking the universe out of context." - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
