Hi, I'm trying to build Diffpack, and I'm having some troubles. I want to build this thing using shared libraries. Reading the ELF-HOWTO and patching the sources somewhat I've managed to produce the shared libraries for the different parts, but now I cann't use them.
Setting LD_SHARED_PATH doesn't work... the linker doesn't see the libraries. Reading the ld info page I'm getting the impression that the shared libraries MUST BE on certain "trusted" directories for ldconfig to work. Right now I'm testing the libraries, and I don't want to put them in /usr/lib. Eventually, I'd like to make a package [*] out of this, but right now I don't want to move this into the system paths. Is there a way to make this work? Is there a howto? Any info pages I should read? [*] for local use, there are license restrictions enforced in a "funny" way (if you agree with the license nobjects sends you a missing file in the source distribution). This doesn't make Diffpack suitable for Debian. I can pack patches, I think. Marcelo Magallon -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
