[Linux-ia64] Can't find libncurses.so.4 in ia32

[Linux-ia64] Can't find libncurses.so.4 in ia32

[Vadim Furman]

Hi,
When I try to run an ia32 "telnet" , I get an error "Can't find shared
library libncurses.so.4".
The libncurses.so.4 library is there in my /usr/ia32/usr/lib directory,
together with other versions of the ncurses libraries.
But for some reasons ldconfig doesn't put it in the ld.so.cache, so when I
do "ldconfig -p | grep ncurses" I see only libncurses.so.5 .
I am using freshly installed TurboLinux Alpha 2000-05-05, my
/etc/ld.so.config has /lib,/usr/lib, /usr/X11R6/lib, and
/usr/ia32/lib,/usr/ia32/usr/lib,/usr/ia32/X11R6/lib

Vadim-

This appears to be some issue with version 4 versus version 5 that
I don't understand how `ldconfig' deals with it.  You can get around
the problem by setting `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/ia32/usr/lib' when
running the IA32 version of `telnet'.  That's what I did and it
worked fine.
