I might be wrong then. I always thought that there was some kind of lib
directory option in the ./configure script that could be set, if not
it'd default (usually to /usr/local or whatever had been coded by the
programmer). For systems such as macports, they'd have set the library
path to /opt/local/lib I believe. Unfortunately, my programming
experience and knowledge is extremely limited, and I might be mistaking
shared libraries with runtime dependent libraries. I'm hoping if I'm
incorrect then someone can show me where, but this is how I've
understood it for a while now.
