I'm speculating here, but renaming the actual DSO like this would make it possible to install two runtime SDL versions side by side (say, 1.2 and 2.0). However, it's safe to assume that you'll only ever need one SDL-devel, so it's fine to just name the symlink libSDL.so--which allows you to use -lSDL on compiler command line (instead of having to spell out -lSDL-1.2). No idea why it confuses ldconfig like this though. Thanks, PM -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
