You have just edited /etc/ld.so.conf.d/local.conf to add a library directory. Type the command (no options or arguments) that rebuilds the dynamic linker cache so the change takes effect system-wide.
LPIC-1 Exam 101-500, objective 102. Linux installation and package management easy
Draft — not checked yet. This question was written from the published exam objectives and cites the clause it comes from, but nobody has yet read it against that clause and signed for it.
It is kept out of search results and out of mock exams until they have. Read the source below before you take the answer as settled.
Answer
Type the answer.
Accepted answers
ldconfig/sbin/ldconfig/usr/sbin/ldconfig
Case sensitive — Linux is, and grading LS as ls would teach a falsehood.
Why
ldconfig, run as root, scans the directories named in /etc/ld.so.conf and its included files plus the trusted directories, and writes /etc/ld.so.cache. Useful variations: 'ldconfig -p' prints the current cache contents without rebuilding anything, and 'ldconfig -v' shows each directory and library as it processes them.
Where this comes from
- Cited
- LPI exam objective 102.3
- What it says
- Load shared libraries and rebuild the linker cache after configuration changes.

Reading one question is not practice. The trainer will draw a set from objective 102 and space the ones you get wrong.
