Nepomuk crashed two times while indexing stuff. I rebuilt it with debug

But 4.5.1 just got masked, so better wait a while until trying to do the
upgrade.

Hello,
I looked into many ebuilds, but didn't come to a final conclusion yet.
I am rather confused.
How does a program in Gentoo know, where to look for shared libraries?
Is this compiled into the programes by means of rpath?
Does Gentoo set up a general search path for libraries?
Does this ra
