I installed a new version of parted and when I go to run it, I get:

[root at localhost parted-1.6.8]# /usr/local/sbin/parted
/usr/local/sbin/parted: error while loading shared libraries: libparted-1.6.0: 
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So, if I look for the related libraries in /usr/local/lib, I get:

lrwxr-xr-x    1 root     root           19 Mar 29 19:22 libparted -> 
libparted-1.6.0.0.8
lrwxr-xr-x    1 root     root           19 Mar 29 19:22 libparted-1.6.0 -> 
libparted-1.6.0.0.8
- -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       309664 Mar 29 19:21 libparted-1.6.0.0.8
- -rw-r--r--    1 root     root       436272 Mar 29 19:21 libparted.a
- -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root          719 Mar 29 19:21 libparted.la

Then, I run ldconfig. But if I go through the entire output of ldconfig, I 
don't see any of the libraries listed above. And , yes, /usr/local/lib is 
definitely in /etc/ld.so.conf. There is something about these libraries that 
makes ldconfig refuse to read them. I have never encountered anything like 
this before.
