The following - facultative - command avoids warnings like {{codeline|libtool: warning: '/usr/local/gcc-6.2.0_binutils-2.27_isl/lib64/libgomp.la' seems to be moved}}
sudo find /usr/local/gcc-6.2.0_binutils-2.27_isl -name "*.la" -exec sed -i 's:/lib64/../lib64:/lib64:g' {} \; -print
which will replace all unnecessary {{codeline|/lib64/../lib64}} by {{codeline|/lib64}}.
