ldconfig questions(plperl.so)

I've just 1) installed redhat 6.1

2) installed perl-5.6.0 (sh Configure -Duseshrplib -d)

3) installed postgresql-7.0.2. (configure --with-perl --with-odbc)

4) add /usr/local/pgsql/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf

5) ran ldconfig

6) exported PGLIB=/usr/local/pgslq/lib

7) ran initdb

8) ran creatlang plperl template1

9) created a plperl function (hello world)

10) tried select test(); got the message:
ERROR: Load of file /usr/local/pgsql/lib/plperl.so failed: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

11) tried: ldconfig -l /usr/local/pgsql/lib/plperl.so, got the message:

/usr/local/pgsql/lib/plperl.so is not a shared library

Incidentally, I moved /usr/lib/perl5 to perl5.old and then created a link: ln /usr/local/lib/perl5 /usr/lib/perl5 if that makes any difference.

Could definitely use some help!

TIA, -km
