That's strange Krisa.. What kind of OS are you running? What loader are you
using?

It's possible you're using some kind of archaic version of *NIX that's got
a hard-coded loader path and the loader cannot be configured.

It's also possible that you're using some other loader other than GNU ld,
in which case the name of the config file for it may be different.

This is all stuff that's specific to the OS you run.


However, if your PCRE winds up in a path your loader already knows to use,
you don't need to change anything. Most of the time the failure to load a
library results from someone installing a library in /usr/local/lib on a
machine that's configured to only look in /lib and /usr/lib for libraries.
