Can someone who knows the wiki add a section on problems?

He is my problem and solution getting beta7 to work on Linux-x86_64:

/tmp/pidgin-2.0.0beta7 $ pidgin
pidgin: error while loading shared libraries: libpurple.so.0: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory

# find / -name libpurple.so* -print
/tmp/pidgin-2.0.0beta7/libpurple/.libs/libpurple.so.0.0.0
/tmp/pidgin-2.0.0beta7/libpurple/.libs/libpurple.so.0
/tmp/pidgin-2.0.0beta7/libpurple/.libs/libpurple.so
/usr/local/lib64/libpurple.so.0.0.0
/usr/local/lib64/libpurple.so.0
/usr/local/lib64/libpurple.so

I had to add "/usr/local/lib64" to my /etc/env.d/00basic LDPATH= (AKA 
/etc/ld.so.conf for non-Gentoo).

It's weird that g*m worked.
