Hi,
I accidently deleted 'ldconfig'. Now i can not install any program. i can not update my system even through apt.
I am using debian etch.

Remarkable ... you bumped your post in 14 minutes. Now this thread is out of zero-reply list and gets less exposure as a result.

Hint: Extract the file you deleted from relevant deb package.
Another hint: packages.debian.org has search feature.
