Bug #: 13945
Summary: RUNPATH behaviour is not transitive
Product: glibc
Version: 2.15
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: dynamic-link
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: mitya@mageia.org
Classification: Unclassified
If only DT_RPATH is used, the DSO chain is traced up to the root (normally an
executable), and thus DT_RPATH of the root module is honoured. With DT_RUNPATH,
it is not; see _dl_map_object in elf/dl-load.c.
That's why if DT_RUNPATH is present, indirect DSO loading from a non-standard
path won't work, for example, if using GModule from GLib. (Even if the correct
DT_RPATH is present, it will be overridden and invalidated by DT_RUNPATH.)
GNOME bug #670477 is an example of such situation. In order to make shell
extensions load, we need to make sure that the "--enable-new-dtags" ld flag is
not used.

Arnold <rsa at us dot ibm.com> 2012-05-22 15:02:16 UTC --- It's unfortunate that RPATH is supposedly deprecated in favor of DT_RUNPATH. And DT_RUNPATH was created to allow LD_LIBRARY_PATH to override the -rpath setting, and yet setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH is widely vilified. I guess this leaves changing ld.so.conf, but that takes root permission.
