Roman Shaposhnik commented on HADOOP-8806:
------------------------------------------
Since Linux (GNU really) documentation leaves quite a bit open for
"interpretation" as far as $ORIGIN and dependencies of unbundled products go,
here's a much more complete treatment of the from Solaris' Linkers and
Libraries doc:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/817-1984/appendixc-4/index.html
> libhadoop.so: dlopen should be better at locating libsnappy.so, etc.

> libhadoop calls {{dlopen}} to load {{libsnappy.so}} and {{libz.so}}. These
> libraries can be bundled in the {{$HADOOP_ROOT/lib/native}} directory. For
> example, the {{-Dbundle.snappy}} build option copies {{libsnappy.so}} to this
> directory. However, snappy can't be loaded from this directory unless
> {{LD_LIBRARY_PATH}} is set to include this directory.
> Can we make this configuration "just work" without needing to rely on
> {{LD_LIBRARY_PATH}}?
