I ran into essentially the same problem on Scientific Linux 6, essentially libtool sometimes incorrectly determines the system library paths. I imagine if you look at the sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec variable within the libtool script it will state that /usr/lib is a system library path and not /usr/lib64. Therefore libtool will assume it needs to pass /usr/lib64 on the command line thereby leading to this linking problem. I raised this question a week or so ago and the workaround suggested was to set: lt_cv_sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec="/lib64 /usr/lib64" during configure, this overrides the paths found by libtool and solved the linking problem for me. Unfortunately this is a hack and ignores any paths specified in ld.so.conf so you may need to tweak this accordingly. Hope this is of some help.

Libtool, rpath, and libGL.so
I'm building a library of mine on Fedora 64-bit and running into some problems. I'm running configure as follows: ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 The problem is that the wrong version of libGL.so is being used at runtime. The correct version is /usr/lib64/nvidia/libGL.so.* but any application built against my library uses /usr/lib64/libGL.so.* instead. This seems to be caused by libtool adding a -rpath flag which forces the application to use the /usr/lib64 version provided by mesa even though ld.so.conf has been properly configured to use the nvidia version. I can fix the problem for other programs by manually deleting all the .la files provided by my library after I install it. However, my library also comes with a demo program which is compiled along side the library and I don't know how to make that use the correct version of libGL. Is there any way to prevent the demo program from getting build with a rpath, or are there any other ways to fix this? pgpKhH0XiIbSJ.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
