Hello! I have a Sony Ericsson z800i which I want to connect to my computer (save sms, manage phonebook etc.) which is running Fedora. I found this program called Tsemgr which I tried to install. During installation, it requested the libezV24 which I also tried to install. as root I did make install:

install -d -m 755 /usr/local/include/ezV24/;
install -m 644 ezV24.h /usr/local/include/ezV24/
install -m 644 -s libezV24-0_s.a /usr/local/lib/libezV24-0_s.a
install -m 755 -s libezV24.so.0.1 /usr/local/lib/libezV24.so.0.1
rm -f /usr/local/lib/libezV24.so.0 /usr/local/lib/libezV24.so
ln -s /usr/local/lib/libezV24.so.0.1 /usr/local/lib/libezV24.so.0;\
ln -s /usr/local/lib/libezV24.so.0 /usr/local/lib/libezV24.so;\
ldconfig
/bin/sh: ldconfig: command not found
make: *** [install] Error 127

What does that mean? (except from the fact that this is a newbie posting a question..)

Any other programs that work better for synchronizing cellular phone with a Fedora computer?

Thanks!

Means it couldn't find the command "ldconfig". This means either it is not in any of the directories in your PATH variable or it doesn't exist on your system.

Type "echo $PATH" to see what directories are in your PATH variable.

Type "find / -name ldconfig" to see if you can find a fully qualified file name (one that includes a directory and ends in the command name e.g. /usr/local/bin/ldconfig). If you do see if the directory that appears before ldconfig is in the PATH you displayed earlier. If not you can add it to your path by typing:
PATH=$PATH:dirname - Where "dirname" is the directory you found with your find command (using my earlier example it would be: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin).

It's probably in /sbin which would be in the PATH for a user or root depending on how you used su. This would be a quick-hack style fix:

Doesn't the way you show it make it a variable called as $ldconfig? Are you saying the make command would understand $ldconfig with the command line you gave or are you assuming the Makefile would look for the variable $ldconfig?

Snapped! Yes I am spastic thank you

Maybe using alias to create an alias for ldconfig while you run 'make install' and then unalias it afterwards would be better
