    Compiling cheese dev branch gnome-3-2

    Hi,
    I tried to install cheese from git development branch gnome-3-2 but after lunching:
    sh autogen.sh
    make
    make install

    if I try to lunch the program with the command:
    cheese

    I receive this error:
    cheese: error while loading shared libraries: libcheese.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


    But if I do whereis libcheese.so.1 I receive:
    libcheese.so: /usr/local/lib/libcheese.so.1 /usr/local/lib/libcheese.so

    so it does exist but.......cheese doesn't fnd it. Does anybody know what's the problem?
    Mind that I'm trying to study the code of cheese so I'm not just interested in having the software installed, I want to be able to modify and recompile it.
    Thanks

    you probably have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to contain /usr/local/lib:

    Code:
    export  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH+$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:}/usr/local/lib
    or configure it system wide in /etc/ld.so.conf.d
