  Apparently when ldconfig was run /usr/local/lib didn't exist.  Apparently=
 it doesn't check for that except for in ldconfig.  I was not aware of ldco=
nfig before.  That explains why the reboot worked.  Thanks to all who provi=
ded information.

I am sure it would have.  I suspect there are more "unexpected" services li=
ke that.  There are too many services to remember, let alone understand.  A=
 Google search turned up nothing usable for me.  If I could have hit on ldc=
onfig, then the man page would have been perfectly clear=85 =
