Greetings. I package software for Fedora and frequently get hit with /usr/lib64 being added as an rpath in builds. I found what I think is the last thread on this subject here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool-patches/2010-06/msg00141.html
In the second message, Olly Betts links to a message from 2007 where he proposed a patch that would solve this by parsing the output of /sbin/ldconfig rather than trying to parse /etc/ld.so.conf. The thread ended with a positive view of the patch and a request to update the patch for current libtool. This last step doesn't appear to have happened. Since I care about this issue, I've gone ahead and ported the patch to current git master. I'm attaching it here. Thanks, -Toshio
