Actually you're right. Egg on my face. I looked into how other packages like Lua Socket do it They put symlinks in /usr/lib/lua/5.1 to the actual compiled libs in /usr/lib. Here are the Lua Socket install locations: /usr/lib/liblua5.1-mime.so.2 /usr/lib/liblua5.1-mime.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/liblua5.1-socket.so.2 /usr/lib/liblua5.1-socket.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/liblua5.1-unix.so.2 /usr/lib/liblua5.1-unix.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/lua/5.1/mime/core.so /usr/lib/lua/5.1/socket/core.so /usr/lib/lua/5.1/socket/unix.so /usr/share/doc/liblua5.1-socket2/README /usr/share/doc/liblua5.1-socket2/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/share/doc/liblua5.1-socket2/copyright /usr/share/lua/5.1/ltn12.lua /usr/share/lua/5.1/mime.lua /usr/share/lua/5.1/socket.lua /usr/share/lua/5.1/socket/ftp.lua /usr/share/lua/5.1/socket/http.lua /usr/share/lua/5.1/socket/smtp.lua /usr/share/lua/5.1/socket/tp.lua /usr/share/lua/5.1/socket/url.lua /usr/lib/liblua5.1-mime.so.2 /usr/lib/liblua5.1-mime.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/lua/5.1/mime/core.so core.so is a symlink to the above libs in /usr/lib. Hmm.. Thanks for the info about the install paths. I just have one more follow up then. How do you install the "versioned" .so.2 .so.2.0.0 etc. libs in one location and the main one, core.so, in another location? wes
