The manpage would indicate that the rnupath is only valid for the library for which it has been set: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19683-01/816-0210/6m6nb7md6/index.html The runtime linker uses a prescribed search path for locating the dynamic dependencies of an object. The default search paths are therunpath recorded in the object, followed by /usr/lib for 32-bit objects or /usr/lib/64 for 64-bit objects. This latter component can be modified using a configuration file created with crle(1). The runpath is specified when the dynamic object is constructed using the -Roption to ld(1). LD_LIBRARY_PATH can be used to indicate directories to be searched before the default directories. rainer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
