I have implemented that and will probably upload, but only enabled it when programs are called with an absolute path, which happens to be enough for ghc. When exec only gets a relative path it could be dangerous to set a relative path in LD_ORIGIN_PATH, since it'd change meaning whenever the process chdirs. Perhaps we should just realpath() the filename in glibc before calling exec? Are relative paths needed for the shell bits? Another relatively different way to go is to eventually implement /proc/self/exe, which we want to at some point anyay. We already have some proposed patch for the self part. For the exe part we still need the absolute path instead of relative. Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-hurd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
