How can I add or install my own libraries?
You can add new files into the /lib directory. However, some directories are not accessible for writing.

You may add new directories with additional *.so (shared object) files anywhere in your VDS. You can use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable or add this directory to your /etc/ld.so.conf file

Once your libraries are added into /lib or /usr/local/lib directories or /etc/ld.so.conf, you will need to run the "ldconfig" command.
