Hi Donald, I faced the same issue, because I use both the topotest setup, and sometimes an already installed frr instance. To people that don't know, it is recommended to run topotest with some specific settings ( daemon binaries are in /usr/lib/frr, but vtysh is in /usr/bin/vtysh). I did not focus on a solution based on changing make settings. I copy manually vtysh if needed, or I use an other VM so that I use separate environments.

Just wanted to document a little bit of a mis-config that I frequently self-inflict with and have just helped another person resolve. When you run one of the daemons, or run vtysh and get this type of message:
root@dev:~/frr# vtysh vtysh: Symbol `frr_vtydir' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking Exiting: failed to connect to any daemons. root@dev:~/frr#
This means that you have managed to install FRR into 2 different locations. How you say? I've seen it from 2 different methodologies:
1) I've run `./configure ..`, `make` and `make install` 2 times. With the first and second configure line being different. I am now fairly paranoid about this issue and double check my configure line.
2) I've installed FRR from packaging (a .deb or .rpm ) and then run `./configure ....` line that installs FRR into a different spot.
How to clean this mess up?
In the undesired set of paths you need to clean up the FRR install, this includes the lib directories. I do this with manual `find /path -name ... | xargs rm -rf`. I'm sure someone more clever than myself knows how to do this with `make` but I have not experimented with this.
