Nice :) > But wouldn't it be the cleanest solution to solve it right in the source code > from the beginning, by not using absolute paths? (How is it done for macOS)? Well. We do use [dynamic paths](https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/master/src/utils.c#L2092) indeed to support Windows and OSX, and as said we do have [binary relocation support already](https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/master/src/prefix.c). But one tricky part is finding out what the installation path is, and that code is copied from somewhere ages ago, and I have no idea how portable it is -- not really something I'm terribly happy with. Also, it doesn't solve looking for libraries, where we currently use `-rpath='$ORIGIN/../lib'`. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
