That depends - glib installs (for example) libglib-2.0.so.0.0.1,
and ldconfig (among other things) creates links libglib-2.0.so.0
and libglib-2.0.so to point at it. 

This could be done by "make install", but it currently isn't for
gnome libs, so in short, yes. You should run ldconfig after
installing every library to make sure these links are pointing in
the right place.

Cheers,
Dave.
