>Description:
"ldconfig" appears to fail, even though there's actually nothing wrong.
This especially causes "pkg_delete" to always emit an error.
>How-To-Repeat:
root@fiona-> pkg_delete libtool
pkg_delete: unexec command for `/sbin/ldconfig' failed
pkg_delete: couldn't entirely delete package (perhaps the packing list is
incorrectly specified?)
root@fiona-> ldconfig && echo OK || echo not OK
not OK
