Are you saying that you didn't install the newly compiled mjpegtools
and the original SuSE package is still installed?
Then you are uing the original (old, broken?) shared libs also!
I would guess that won't work.

Uninstall SuSE's mjpegtools and install yours!

I've encountentered the necessity for certain packages to run ldconfig by hand.
Make sure /usr/local/lib is in your /etc/ld.so.conf.

Well, you will be annoyed everytime you install new SuSE packages via
YaST. :-(

I think that's it worth to keep things - the packages themselves - consistent.

I also uninstalled certain other packages which have limitations due to legal/patent
issues and compiled/installed my own.
E.g. libdvdcss (not existent), mplayer, xine-lib, xine-ui, kaffeine, etc.
