[Cbc] 2.10 version on Ubuntu

[Ted Ralphs]

JP,

A huge thanks to you, too, for the feedback. 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.

For posterity, a general solution to your issue would have been to add

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

to your ~/.bashrc, which should work on any platform. The ldconfig
solutions is easier on Ubuntu, but it is only a bit of luck that it works
because /usr/local/lib is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf.

I'm going to update the documentation and also put some messages into
coinbrew itself to prompt people to what to do if they encounter this
issue. Thanks again for your feedback!

Cheers,

Ted
