Here's my analysis why this is so: irrespective of these options, aclocal.m4 computes LD_RPATH_OPT="-Wl,-rpath," and later LOCAL_LDFLAGS="${LD_RPATH_OPT}\$(LOCAL_LIBDIR)". This is not a problem for the regular programs since progs/Makefile.in does not use LOCAL_LDFLAGS, but test/Makefile.in adds it to LDFLAGS, so we lose. >> In test/configure there is no option at all to disable RPATH. >> Any ideas? > > I can add an option. test/configure was originally a minimal script, > without the various features needed in ./configure, but I can see it'll > grow a little more. Actually rpath is not a problem when running test/configure, but I could not get it to use the just compiled-but-not-yet-installed ncurses library. Because it is built out of tree, the libs are not adjacent to the headers which is expected by the "--with-curses-dir" configure option. It would be good if this could be made to work, because the simplistic solution of just copying everything from obj/test has the drawback that cruft files like "Makefile" creep into the binary package. And we can only run "make install" in the test directory if we had run test/configure before, see the recent discussion on bug-ncurses.
