Hi Nathanael, The --disable-rpath option doesn't do anything for us. It is part of the gnulib stuff, and only affects some internal gnulib macros. It looks useful, but it doesn't do anything close to what we need. :-) The --enable-rpathhack was added by me, and should work. If it works, you should see some message about fixing "HIDEOUS BREAKAGE" in the configure script output. :-) But this feature only modifies the libtool script in the Barry directory. I suppose it is possible that some other libtool script is used on Fedora. Does this happen on Fedora 16 or just 17? Maybe I can run some tests here, but all my own rpm test builds have been succeeding so far, and my barry.spec uses --enable-rpathhack. - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
