s3fs: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.4

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am using CENTOS 5 and i have have installed curl from 
http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.21.0.tar.gz

whenever i try to run s3fs i get the following:

s3fs: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.4: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

however I do have it, when is run whereis libcurlso.4:
libcurl.so: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3 /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so 
/usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4

little concerned as to why i have a /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3 too but maybe thats 
normal?

never mind, its been a while since i seriously used linux and did not think of 
the obvious.

Answer = ln -s /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4 /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4 

DOH!!

would be good for CENTOS users if s3fs actualy looked in /usr/local/lib though?

Closing this issue -- user fixed the issue with a link.  However, this appears 
to be a problem with the dynamic linker not looking in /usr/local/lib  Check 
the ldconfig man page and /etc/ld.so.conf
