Load problem...cant find shared library.

[[ Sorry for sending this twice, but it got out without a subject line ]]

I  am trying to build gphoto2 for an old system (Fedora 11) where I store 
photos.
(gphoto2 exists as part of the download in Fedora19)

In any case, I do the configure/make/make install for both libgphto2 and 
gphoto2 with no problems, so it would seem that the loader at this point
is seeing the library.

But when I try to execute gphoto2, I get the message

gphoto2: error while loading shared libraries: libgphoto2.so.6: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory

the library is in /usr/local/lib, so the directory IS being searched.
I vaguely remember this problem from some years ago, but forget the solution.

Anyone remember how to work around this?
