No, incorrect. It is a perfectly acceptable place to put libraries. You just have to let consumers of such libraries know that the libraries are there.

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)

LDBASH(1) libbash Manual LDBASH(1)
NAME
ldbash -- Dynamic loader for libbash(7) libraries.
SYNOPSIS
ldbash [-h | --help]
ldbash [-l | --list]
ldbash [-L | --load lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [-U | --unload lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [-e | --externlist lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [--externlist-all]
ldbash [--i | --internlista lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [--internlist-all]
DESCRIPTION
ldbash is used to manipulate libbash(7) libraries. Its main function is to load specific library. It can also print list of available
libraries, list functions each library exports, unload functions, etc.
In case of --load and --unload ,the output is intended to be passed to bash eval command.
Options
-h | --help Print options summary
-l | --list Display list of available libraries. The libraries names listed, may be passed as parameters to other invocations of ldbash.
I.e. first you run ldbash --list to see what is available and then you may load it.
-L | --load lib,[lib] ...
Load given libraries - i.e. print string that should be passed to eval command. Usually the string contains various source
commands.
Libraries that given libraries depend on are also loaded.
Libraries only loaded if their dependencies are satisfied. Dependencies are resolved using ldbash.cache file, which is created
by ldbashconfig(8).
-U | --unload lib,[lib] ...
Unload given libraries, but not their dependencies.
The output should be passed to eval command (in the same manner as with --load ).
-e | --externlist lib,[lib] ...
List all symbols that are exported by given libraries. Symbols are usually functions that given libraries implement.
--externlist-all
List all exported symbols of all available libraries. Symbols are usually functions that library implement.
-i | --internlist lib,[lib] ...
List all internal symbols (i.e. global variables/functions) of given libraries. This is intended mostly for developers that
want to develop library of their own, and want to be sure that they don't override any already defined symbol.
--internlist-all
List all internal symbols of all available libraries. This is intended mostly for developers that want to develop library of
their own, and want to be sure that they don't override any already defined symbol.
FILES
/etc/ldbash.cache
Cache file that contains information about libraries dependencies and list of exported symbols. See ldbashconfig((8)) for further
details.
BUGS
The script can't load libraries if their file name starts with '-'. (If someone uses file names that start with a '-' he/she deserves it!)
