wine users - Sep 2001 - Wine 20010904-1 can't find libntdll.so

I just installed Wine version 20010904-1 on RH7.1.  libntdll.so is in
/usr/lib/wine but even though I have defined the WINEDLLPATH to
include that directory, when I try to run wine I get an error message
that says...

wine: error while loading shared libraries: libntdll.so: cannot load
shared object file: No such file or directory.

What's up?

Did you not use wineinstall ? it's supposed to take care of
these problems.

WINEDLLPATH tells the Wine dll loader where to find builtin dlls.  If
you will do an ldd of wherever the rpm puts the wine binary, you will
see that it refers to libntdll.so directly, so the linux dynamic linker
has to find it before wine even starts.  Have the System Administrator
(the bloke what knows the root password, probably you) include
/usr/lib/wine in /etc/ld.so.conf and run /sbin/ldconfig, or include
/usr/lib/wine in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
