Subject: ruby/swig/svn load error

I just finished installing the SVN binding for ruby using SWIG 1.3.24
(swig 1.3.25 wouldn't compile -- syntax errors).

I reconfigured an reinstalled Subversion (1.2.1) afterwards so that it
knew about the bindings (as per the instructions[1]).  I did a `make
swig-rb` with no problems, a `make check-swig-rb` in which unit tests
are run, no problem.  I did a make install-swig-rb.

However, when I do a `ruby -e 'require "svn/core"' I get this error:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-linux/svn/ext/core.so:
libsvn_swig_ruby-1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory - /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-linux/svn/ext/core.so
(LoadError)
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/svn/error.rb:1
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/svn/core.rb:3:in `require'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/svn/core.rb:3
        from -e:1:in `require'
        from -e:1


Now, I can see libsvn_swig_ruby-1.so.0 in /usr/local/lib.  Why can't it find it?

I don't know if this is relevant, but during the `make
install-swig-rb` I get a lot of these "warnings":

libtool: link: warning:
`/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../..//libdb-4.2.la' seems
to be moved
libtool: link: warning:
`/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../..//libexpat.la' seems
to be moved


Anyway, I can run all the unit tests just fine (which obviously use
the libraries) if I execute from
/usr/local/src/subversion-1.2.1/subversion/bindings/swig/ruby (as
root, due to permission issues), but from anywhere else I get the
above load error.

Anyone have any suggestions?  I am using Ruby 1.8.2 (december build),
SWIG 1.3.24, and Subversion 1.2.1 on this Suse 9.2 box, and followed
the insructions from [1].

Thanks.

Matt
