Details:

Hi,

I'm trying to link binaries to libraries that are not installed on the system,
but just unpacked to a "staging" directory.

Consider this (real) example:

1) Build expat with "--libdir=/usr/lib/${platform}"
2) Install expat with "make install DESTDIR=${stagedir}"
3) Configure dbus with "-L${stagedir}/usr/lib/${platform}" where it will find
expat now, and "-rpath /usr/lib/${platform}" where it will find expat at real
runtime when both are installed.
4) Build expat

The problem is that ${stagedir} is leaking and the resulting dbus-daemon gets
both /usr/lib/${platform} *and* ${stagedir}/usr/lib/${platform} added to
it...

I tried working around it by passing --with-sysroot=${stagedir} to the dbus
configure, but unfortunately that didn't work...

I wrote a small reproducer that seems to illustrate the issue, I tried it with
latest libtool from git (commit ac180507c123469d0fe9b25437d459af24b3f789) and
I still have the same problem.

$ libtool_rpath/reproduce.sh
...
===> RPATH of bintest:
 0x000f (RPATH)  Library rpath:
[/path/to/libtool_rpath/destdir/usr/lib/platform:/usr/lib/platform]

Do you have a suggestion of something I could do to accomplish what I'm trying
to accomplish?

Is this a libtool bug?

Any suggestions of workarounds?

Thanks!
Filipe

Trying to get libtool not to add -rpath, since libs are only in a staging directory

(I also filed a bug at
http://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?108637 in case this is
actually a libtool bug.)

Thanks in advance!
