Title:
  /usr/lib/i686/cmov searched before /usr/local/lib

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I have built ffmpeg from source on my system in order to get
  facilities not available in the Ubuntu versions (including
  "unstripped"). I use the default configuration, which installs
  libraries under /usr/local/lib.

  However, when /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg is run, the various libraries such
  as libavcodec and libavutil are still linked from /usr/lib/i686/cmov.

  Unfortunately, the way that these paths are searched is not documented
  as far as I can see, but it is surely wrong that something under
  /usr/lib is searched before /usr/local/lib, as on my system I have the
  default library search order, i.e.:

  $ cat /etc/ld.so.conf
  include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf

  $ cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
  # Multiarch support
  /lib/i486-linux-gnu
  /usr/lib/i486-linux-gnu
  /usr/lib/alsa-lib
  # libc default configuration
  /usr/local/lib

  Note that /usr/lib is not mentioned in any of the conf files, so
  according to ld.so(8) it should only be searched after the directories
  that are mentioned. (On my system at least, /lib/i486-linux-gnu and
  /usr/lib/i486-linux-gnu are empty.)
