Summary: ./tools/wineinstall adds /usr/local/lib to
                    /etc/ld.so.conf
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.49.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-binary
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: fry.kun@gmail.com
It appears that running ./tools/wineinstall (the recommended install method for
source installs) adds "/usr/local/lib" to /etc/ld.so.conf
As I understand it, this is not a proper default and should be avoided.
Personally, I've grappled for a week with a bug from dual python installation
(stock /usr/ and custom /usr/local/) where stock python would attempt to
dynamically load /usr/local/lib/libpython2.5.so.1.0 - this caused a lot of
errors with system programs/etc.
Tracing the source of the bad entry in /etc/ld.so.conf led me to wine
installer.
