Correct, we have infrastructure for that already.
That is an interesting proposition. --enable-new-dtags would in essence move the RPATH entries to DT_RUNPATH instead of DT_RPATH and then a new BRP policy script could be written applying the aforementioned rules for RUNPATH.
Could be simpler, but I'll have to approach this from a different POV. I'll ponder on it for a bit.
So to summarize, you're proposing:
Banning RPATH through using --enable-new-dtags (with hopefully no intervention required from packagers).
Apply the check-rpath rules (excluding the $ORIGIN one) for RUNPATH instead.
Thanks,
Florian
