So... What is the *actual* *defensible* reason we continue to disallow the use of $ORIGIN in RPATH in pkgsrc? And if no such defensible reason can be put forward, can we please stop suppressing this? Pretty, please?
There have been many reasons explained many times previously on the list (we don't support relocatable packages, $ORIGIN introduces security and reliability concerns, etc), but if you want at least a couple of hard reasons why as well, then it would break both check-shlibs and REQUIRES,
as well as wiz' new pkg_add checks.I'd recommend just building bootstraps outside of a pkgsrc environment if it's a problem for you that you can't resolve, or patch your cwrappers locally to not remove them.
