Re: error in loading shared libraries!

[Anders Alstrin <e devel swipnet se>]

You are absolutly right it is linking to the old libgdk_imlib.so.1
instead of libgdk_imlib.so.1.8.0.
I went and change the order in ld.so.conf and did the ldconfig
command.
But the problem remains.
Do i dare to delete the old libgdk_imlib or is it still in use of
some programs?
