<div dir="ltr">Just to close the loop, I made some additional improvements based on JP's feedback. ldconfig is now run automatically after the install on Linux whenever the install directory is not writable. It turns out that ldconfig is run automatically by libtool EXCEPT in the case of installing a directory that is in the system default library path. There doesn't seem to be a very good reason for this, but that's what it is.<div><br></div><div>I added some additional output explaining this and also changed the default verbosity level to 1 to remove some of the visual chaff. </div><div><br></div><div>By the way, another useful tidbit is that the default version that is fetched is the git master version, which is the development version (under our current workflow).

It helps a lot hearing from people who are using these tools, especially as they are in development. I actually don't have too much occasion to install to /usr/local, as I've always got many different builds that I'm working with locally. It helps to know what the experience is like for someone who just wants to install in /usr/local and leave it. I thought we were actually embedding the location of the libraries in the binary and that this issue shouldn't come up. I'll check into why that doesn't seem to be working.</div><div><br></div><div>For posterity, a general solution to your issue would have been to add</div><div><br></div><div>export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib</div><div><br></div><div>to your ~/.bashrc, which should work on any platform.
