rtorrent-ps | Extended rTorrent distribution | Command Line Interface library

Long story short: I worked on relative rpath linking with this script (that uses automake, autoconf, libtool). The problem is that the final rpath/runpath entry in the binary executable or so file still has the absolute path:

• it turned out libtool is configured by default like this with hardcode_libdir_flag_spec to include any -L value if it's set in LDFLAGS

The only question remains: how and at which point (what's the proper way) can I set other libtool variables, like hardcode_minus_L. (I've searched for it on the net, but I couldn't find anything.)

I tried to do the following:

• after configure is called I tried to replace the value of the variable with sed in libtool file (in the proper directory): it worked but when make is called it overwrote the whole libtool file again (it was regenerated)

Note, that 2 binary files are effected by this, entry for rpath/runpath with objdump -p:

• libcurl.so : RUNPATH /home/user1/lib/rtorrent-0.9.7-1.5.3/lib:$ORIGIN/../lib
• rtorrent : RUNPATH $ORIGIN/../lib:/home/user1/lib/rtorrent-0.9.7-1.5.3/lib

Thanks
