Weird nginx install problem solved with hack

I installed nginx from source on a CentOS 5.8 machine. I also had installed libprce by hand so that I could compile nginx.

So far, so good. But then when I attempted to run nginx, I would get an error saying that it couldn’t find libprce.so.1. I looked for it under /usr/lib and it wasn’t there, but I did find it under /lib . I couldn’t figure out what to do, until I found this page:

Which said that it should be solved via a symbolic link from /usr/lib to /lib/libprce.so.0. It feels very hacky, but it worked.
