2003-07-28	* Do not set LD_LIBRARY_PATH; it breaks many things. E.g., SuSE's ssh	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	dynamically links against libdb4 (?!), due to LD_LIBRARY_PATH it picks up our libdb4 instead of SuSE's libdb4, but our libdb4 uses another glibc so loading barfs. Instead, all packages should use rpaths to store library locations in executables/libraries. The disadvantage is that overriding rpaths is harder. (It is possible by invoking the dynamic linker directly, e.g., `/lib/ld-linux.so.2 --ignore-path LIST program args...' to ignore the rpath for the libraries in LIST). It would be better to use DT_RUNPATH, which is consulted by the dynamic linker after LD_LIBRARY_PATH but before ld.so.cache and the system directories.
2003-07-13	* Generate the scripts so that we can substitute the prefix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+20
	etc. correctly. * Fixed nix-switch.
