The linker hardcodes library paths into exes and libs. We examine these paths at install time using otool and rewrite them from the staging paths on the build machine to whatever directory the user chose to install to using install_name_tool(1).
Yep, the mac linker seems to default to absolute rpath linking, which I personally find *really* frustrating.
The other option would be to rewrite the paths to be relative at build time I guess.
That's the approach most Mac apps take, and is supported by the @ relative path syntax in install_name_tool.
