[pkg-firebird-general] Bug#524052: firebird2.1-common: Home made UDF cannot use libib_utils.so

[Pierre Yager]

Package: firebird2.1-common
Version: 2.1.2.18118-release.ds1-1~mine.0
Severity: normal

I have a home made UDF in Pascal/Delphi language compiled with FPC (FreePascal Compiler) that can't run "as this" with default firebird 2.1 installation because it requires libib_utils.so which is installed in /usr/lib/firebird/2.1/lib and cannot be found at runtime.

# ldd libnepudf.so
	linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xb7f3f000)
        libib_util.so => not found
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7e9c000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7d5e000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

Workarounds :
- symlink /usr/lib/firebird/2.1/lib/libib_utils.so to /usr/lib, or
- add /usr/lib/firebird/2.1/lib to /etc/ld.conf.d/firebird and run ldconfig
