Running lintian with the '-i' option, or filtering its output through lintian-info(1) will give more information about the message: $ echo "W: kcdlabel: binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath ./usr/bin/kcdlabel /usr/X11R6/lib" | lintian-info W: kcdlabel: binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath ./usr/bin/kcdlabel /usr/X11R6/lib N: N: The binary or shared library defines the `RPATH'. Usually this is a N: bad thing. Most likely you will find a Makefile with a line like: N: gcc test.o -o test -Wl,--rpath N: or N: gcc test.o -o test -R/usr/local/lib N: Please contact [email protected] if you have questions N: about this.
