Cheers, one thing I wanted to bring up on FOSDEM, but utterly failed to, was the situation with OOCE Extra repo: it cheerfully delivers a ton of useful packages, including tools, and libraries, and their pkgconfig manifests - and carefully stays out of the way in its dedicated /opt/ooce/... tree. Updating PATH is one thing, but building and linking programs against those libs proved much harder.

Their *.pc files mostly lack `-R/opt/ooce/lib/ARCHNAME` flags and so the run-time linker is sad.

And of course using `crle` or `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` is frowned upon so is not a production solution to run built programs...

jimklimov: Yes, I think if you deliver a pkg-config file without the right runpath flags that's a bug we should get filed in the issue tracker there

github.com/omniosorg/omnios-extra/issues etc

yes, roughly 120 filenames and zero "-R", "-W" or "run" hits per e.g. `grep ' -R' /opt/ooce/lib/{*/,}pkgconfig/*`

@jclulow: yes, right, that too :) omniosorg/omnios-extra #1578
