ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed

I was running the "ninja test" command and halfway it failed and there was an error "collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status". This is the output after running the command.

Thanks. I will look into this sometime this week or on the weekend. At a glance, a sudo ldconfig might fix it.
