libdar.so.4 problems building dar, and ultimately kdar

Problem properly building dar (archive program).

It builds out of the box, apparently fine, on Slackware 12.1.
Then, I try building kdar, which complains that libdar.so.4 can't be found. It's in /usr/local/lib. So I do "dar -V" and find that dar can't find libdar.so.4 as well.

This is apparently a building problem. Any suggestions?

I'm presently playing with configure, for example, explicitly specifying --libdar=/usr/local and so on.

You have following options:
1) run your program with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
2) add /usr/local/lib to your /etc/ld.so.conf and run /sbin/ldconfig
3) copy your library to the /ysr/lib
