not necessarily.  suing to root wont always fix (depends on path setup)

Need to make sure ldconfig is in your path.

1. first find where ldconfig is (e.g., "whereis ldconfig")
2. check your path (e.g., "env")
3.  if its not in your path, add it (e.g.,
"PATH=$PATH:/location/where/ldconfig/is" and "export PATH")
That should work.
