Thanks! But I got errors. I am not sure how to implement your suggestion.
Is there documentation about this?
In the examples below I place both expat and python under
/opt/python/python2.1.3 (and with lib and include below that level).
I changed setup.py to:
ext_modules=[Extension('struct', ['structmodule.c'],
runtime_library_dirs = ['/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib'] <= added
)],
This change generated the following error:
$ (various flags) ./configure --prefix=/opt/python/python2.1.3

Other than that no rpath related stuff appears during compilation (as far
as I know). Should I add pyexpat or pyexpat.c to ext_modules line somehow?
Could it be that -R was meant for ld on the command line and not as a
parameter for gcc to pass along to ld? (As if I were on a sun machine?)
This is the only place where -R appears during the whole compilation.
Should not "-Wl,--rpath -Wl,/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib" be used instead
of "-R" for gcc on linux?
If I add flags like:
LIBS="-lgdbm_compat -lgdbm" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib \
-Wl,--rpath -Wl,/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib" \
CFLAGS="-I/opt/python/python2.1.3/include \
-L/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib \
-Wl,--rpath -Wl,/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib \
-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" CPPFLAGS="$CFLAGS" \
./configure --prefix=/opt/python/python2.1.3
The option "-Wl,--rpath -Wl,/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib" appears only
once during the whole compilation at this point:

The building of the rest of the modules looks typically like this:

----[snip]
I have also tried to edit the file Modules/Setup, uncommenting pyexpat
and adding -Xlinker options:
pyexpat pyexpat.c -I/opt/python/python2.1.3/include \
-L/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib -lexpat -Xlinker --rpath -Xlinker \
/opt/python/python2.1.3/lib
(The line is not diveded up in the source.)
That resulted in errors because the header file xmlparse.h couldn't be
found. I do not know if this file is supposed to come from expat, libxml
or what. I have expat version 1.95.6 (with added definition for
XML_Status) and there I have found I file called xmlparse.c but not
xmlparse.h - yet.
Any ideas?
