Re: [Libguestfs] hivex: Bug: RPATH in Perl SO

Whilst cleaning up the lintian reports in preparation for the
Debian/Ubuntu hivex package one of the issues is:

./usr/lib/perl/5.10.1/auto/Win/Hivex/Hivex.so
/tmp/buildd/hivex-1.2.1/perl/../lib/.libs
I've temporarily dealt with this by using chrpath in the build and a
rule to delete the RPATH from "auto/Win/Hivex/Hivex.so".
I wonder if this is an oversight since it is non-portable and refers to
a build-time location? There are some helpful notes about this at:
http://wiki.debian.org/RpathIssue
Well it certainly looks like a bug. If you have a suggested patch I'd
be interested to see it (preferably one which works optionally with
chrpath so we don't have to add it as a hard dependency).
