I'm talking about the dynamic linker search path, which is determined by glibc. sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec is how libtool decides whether to encode an RPATH for programs or not. I'm not exactly sure what it does for libraries. -- Dan _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
