I have this file on my system, located under /usr/lib
check to see if it located there. if not make sure you have these 
packages installed.  then re-run ' ldconfig ' to make sure the library 
is linked and then check the script of the installed package for the 
path and change it if necessary.  I would run the config again after 
you verified the file is there and re-run ldconfig.  If it still errors out 
then change the script to match the path.  Oh btw, I may not know 
what I am talking about but this process seems to work for me.
