Hi All,
Commit 5c1de006e8e66 (cpupower Makefile change to help run the tool
without 'make install') added an rpath to the cpupower binary. From
what I can understand, this is to make it easier to run cpupower from
the local build directory without having to run make install. It does
accomplish that, but it also leaves the binary with the rpath in it
which is considered bad practice. It also causes cpupower to fail in
rpmbuild with the following error:
ERROR 0004: file '/usr/bin/cpupower' contains an insecure rpath './'
in [./]
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.A6u26r (%install)
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.A6u26r (%install)
I understand the want for eased development, but couldn't people just
set LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead?
