Is /usr/local/lib in the dynamic linker path? You might need
to add it to '/etc/ld.so.conf'.
My linux skills are "questionable' but I'd thought something like that
would have already been properly configured when gcc gets pulled down
and installed with a package manager. But I'm learning...
My ld.so.conf file references all '*.conf' in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/. And
/usr/local/lib is present in one of them.
In order to get libguestfs-test-tool to work I made this link:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libguestfs.so
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libguestfs.so.0
If there is a more correct solution please let me know.
