I don't think $ORIGIN is an environment variable. AFAIK, the sun linker is using that keyword to specify that you want to use an RPATH relative to the location of the binary, which is pretty handy for deploying/moving not packaged local software that is dynamically linked. According to http://linuxreviews.org/man/ld.so/, the linux ld.so supports the same feature. However, I did not find this piece in the debian manpage, nor in the upstream documentation. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
