Github user SaveTheRbtz commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/75#issuecomment-41516411 @jpeach The idea behind it is very simple: if user overrides path to openssl then he most likely wants to have that path added to `RPATH`, so when application is run it can actually find it, even if path is not in `ldconfig` or `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`/`LD_PRELOAD`. PS. Note that it's the same behaviour as in 3.2.x: https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/blob/3.2.x/build/crypto.m4#L93 PPS. And yes, probably it should be like that for all shared libraries: if path is overridden it should be added to `rpath`
