OK, /etc/ld.so.conf now looks something like:

   include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
   /usr/local/lib

Update:

   ldconfig -v

   /usr/local/lib:
         libspandsp.so.2 -> libspandsp.so.2.0.0
   /lib:
         libgcc_s.so.1 -> libgcc_s-4.1.2-20080825.so.1
         etc.................

Reboot.

Thanks a bunch, guys!

Now let's see if I can actually receive a
