sox error (MAD issue)

hi!
I have just intalled the mad libary to get mp3 thing working.

Everything I did as it was in INSTALL file.
But I cannot understand why I am getting following error, everytime I try to use it.

Code:

[root@localhost /]# sox
sox: error while loading shared libraries: libmad.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

root@localhost /]# madplay
madplay: error while loading shared libraries: libmad.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

(BUT when I did following... I can see that file)

[root@localhost /]# ls /usr/local/lib
cmus          libid3tag.so         libmad.a libmad.so.0      libmp3lame.a   libmp3lame.so.0
libid3tag.a   libid3tag.so.0      libmad.la  libmad.so.0.2.0  libmp3lame.la  libmp3lame.so.0.0.0
libid3tag.la  libid3tag.so.0.3.0  libmad.so  libmad.so.0.2.1  libmp3lame.so
[root@localhost /]#

Thanks in advance

I got it working..

I installed all the rpms this time, intead of installing using the tarballs.

Though my problem is solved. I am just curious to know,if anybody can throw some light on it, what special rpm did that this thing worked.
