I don't want to be pedantic, but I have taken a look at the Filesystem
Hierarchy Standard (FHS not LSB as I wrote):
/lib : Essential shared libraries and kernel modules
/usr/lib: Libraries for programming and packages
I think storing a static libray in /lib and adding a symlink from /lib to
/usr/lib is plain wrong.
Let's keep the filesystem clean, or the distributions will do it for us when
they include XFS :-)
And now I go back to my glass of wine...
