Actually, a method I've been using, which seems to be the simplest way to
get all your 'addin' libraries seen by any of your programs (including PHP)
is to put 'symbolic' links in "/usr/lib" pointing to the actual library
(though I'm lied about the RSAref library, which I actually copied into
"/usr/lib).
Since "/usr/lib" IS definitely in your library 'path', you don't have to go
thru the fuss of adding to it...
My "/usr/lib" directory has these entries now:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Oct 19 00:03 libmcrypt.so.4 ->
/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt.so.4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Oct 19 00:03 libmysqlclient.so ->
/usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 45800 Oct 15 15:30 librsaref.a
For "MySQL" you'll have to put a link in, for whatever library it's
complaining about (for MySQL version 3.23.XX, it seems to be
"libmysqlclient.so.10")
Also, thought the 'libmcrypt' link works, as you'll see in a lot of the
other listings, there's a problem with "libmcrypt" version 2.4.9,
