Just as /usr/local/bin is used as the default binary install location when you build a binary, /usr/local/lib is commonly used as the default library install location when you build a library. Been that way for many a year.
You are expected to know what you are doing if you build shared libraries. You could have specified another install location when you were building these libraries but you did not. The result was that the libraries were installed in /usr/local/lib.
Either use LD_LIBRARY_PATH or ldconfig to ensure that libraries in /usr/local/lib are made available, or install them in one of the default locations for shared libraries.

Hello UNIX people. I was just cruising around my UFS and came across the directory /usr/lib/32. This directory continues up many directories (/usr/lib/32/32/32/32->). Each level of 32/ directory seems to be a copy of the previous one. I have been working with UNIX for a little while now, but I... (3 Replies)

pminst
PMINST(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation PMINST(1p)
NAME
pminst - find modules whose names match this pattern
SYNOPSIS
pminst [-s] [-l] [pattern]
DESCRIPTION
Without argumnets, show the names of all installed modules. Given a pattern, show all module names that match it. The -l flag will show
the full pathname. The -s flag will separate the base directory from @INC from the module portion itself.
EXAMPLES
$ pminst
(lists all installed modules)
$ pminst Carp
CGI::Carp
Carp
$ pminst ^IO::
IO::Socket::INET
IO::Socket::UNIX
IO::Select
IO::Socket
IO::Poll
IO::Handle
IO::Pipe
IO::Seekable
IO::Dir
IO::File
$ pminst '(?i)io'
IO::Socket::INET
IO::Socket::UNIX
IO::Select
IO::Socket
IO::Poll
IO::Handle
IO::Pipe
IO::Seekable
IO::Dir
IO::File
IO
Pod::Functions
The -s flag provides output with the directory separated
by a space:
$ pminst -s | sort +1
(lists all modules, sorted by name, but with where they
came from)
$ oldperl -S pminst -s IO
/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::File
/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Handle
/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Pipe
/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Seekable
/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Select

/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl LWP::IO
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl LWP::TkIO
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl Tk::HTML::IO
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl Tk::IO
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::Stringy

/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::Lines
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::WrapTie
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::AtomicFile
The -l flag gives full paths:
