AIUI ldconfig generates the necessary symlinks.  So if you have 
libblah.so.1.2.3, ldconfig will make libblah.so.1.2, libblah.so.1 and 
libblah.so to point to the actual specific version of the library you have.

I don't know what the /nvidia subdir is about but I would delete or move 
any of the files in question except the most specific one (eg, 
libblah.so.1.2.3) and run ldconfig as root.  When you look back there 
should be some symlinks created and no more errors.
