[vtkusers] Shared library path

Fri Mar 1 09:35:59 EST 2002

Hi,

I have a problem with the vtk executable not finding its shared
libraries.
I compiled vtk-4 (latest cvs version) under Linux (Suse 7.3) and
installed  it into a non-standard location
(CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/local/vtk-devel). Everything works fine
so far.
But after I remove the build-tree vtk cannot find its shared libraries
any longer.
The problem is that the link command get's the wrong -rpath (possibly a
CMAKE problem?).
I attached the output of ldd to this mail. The used rpath makes it
possible to execute vtk at the build location, but is not valid for the
installed program.

Best regards,
Rainer Sabelka
