/usr/bin/ld: warning...

I get the message

/usr/bin/ld: warning: libX11.so.6, needed by libMyLib.so, not found (try
using --rpath)

when I try to link to my shared lib libMyLib.so.
However, the linked executable works fine.

I include /usr/lib in the library path: -L/usr/lib, and in /usr/lib, there
is libX11.so.6.
What’s wrong?

It looks like libMyLib.so needs libX11.so.6, and that you need to specify
the path to libX11.so.6 using the ‘–rpath’ command line argument to
the linker. It is like the ‘-L’ arg, except it is for shared objects
required by other shared objects.

–rpath /usr/X11R6/lib

Try it and let us know.
