Yes, so that it is in your environment -anytime- you run a configure script. Note that not all those configure scripts will create proper LDFLAGS in your Makefiles. You need to monitor that; for each -L in the linking output there needs be a corresponding -R. Considering c-shell you might also want to read this: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/shell/csh-whynot/ > And to IGNORE the idea of a RUN path.

Solaris run-time linker, ld.so.1, does not even recognize that LD_RUN_PATH value. man ld.so.1 It does not even appear in the ld.so(8) man page for Linux. > Oh, is there some EASY way, cookbook like, to grab > an emacs from CVS, without having to *learn* the > whole freaking thing? EMACS is a GNU utility. I don't know about a publicly readable CVS repository for it, but you might check at http://www.gnu.org.
