2.9.4 import issue with libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.9.so.4

[wxpyjoshtron]

after the successful build, i wanted to take 2.9 for a spin, but i get this at the interpreter:
the file libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.9.so.4 is a symlink to /usr/local/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.9.so.4.0.0.0

Run "ldd /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/wx-2.9.4-gtk2/wx/_core_.so" to
see where it is trying to load the wxGTK library from. If it doesn't
have a specific path name for it then you probably need to add
/usr/local/lib/ to the paths in /etc/ld.so.conf (and rerun ldconfig), or
add it to LD_LIBRARY_PATH set in the environment.
