Description:

readelf: Error: '/data/INSTALL/nvidia-340xx-utils/pkg/nvidia-340xx-utils/etc/ld.so.conf.d' is not an ordinary file

The result of find in createlinks() contains the linker directory:

pkg/nvidia-340xx-utils/etc/ld.so.conf.d

Suggested fix:

for _lib in $(find "${pkgdir}" -name '*.so*' | grep -v 'xorg/' | grep -v ld.so.conf.d); do

Additional info:
* package version(s): 340.104-2
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
makepkg -s

'-type f' would be a lot better here than adding another grep, but is this actually a problem?

Well, not a problem, but calling readelf on a directory is not nice. :-)

As a rule of thumb one should really be using something path-safe like:

```
while read -rd ''; do
...
done < <(find "${pkgdir}" -type d -name xorg -prune -o -type f -name '*.so*' -print0)
```

For bonus points, it comes with free find options for ignoring certain directories!
If usr/lib/nvidia/xorg/libglx.so.340.104 is actually supposed to be detected, the following can be used instead:
find "${pkgdir}" -type d -path '*/lib/xorg/*' -prune -o -type f -name '*.so*' -print0
