Larry, You probably have /usr/local/lib LD_LIBRARY_PATH. On my system LD_LIBRARY_PATH defaults to /usr/X/lib:/lib and LD_RUN_PATH are not set, and I prefer it that way. The rpath related changes allow me to specify the additional library search paths by using the configure --with-libraries option and have those paths placed into the executable so that the executables can run without having to the default setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH. After reading the discussions, I can think of another enhancement to the rpath changes: have the contents of LD_LIBRARY_PATH added to the -R (or -rpath) option inside the port specific makefile. That way, if you add the additional search paths to LD_LIBRARY_PATH you won't have to use the --with-libraries and the executable(s) will have the runtime search paths in them so they will execute without having to change the default LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting. -- ____ | Billy G.
