# It's practically impossible to change the library link order with the Perl
# build system.  It's also pratically impossible to correctly link a Perl
# extension against a library that's built out of the same source tree without
# introducing an rpath to the source tree, a potential security hole.
#
# If I don't tell MakeMaker about the full path to the just-built library, it
# will helpfully delete the -lremctl reference and then create a broken
# module, while saying that this is probably harmless.  If I do include it, I
# have to fight with it to not add an rpath to the built module.  I did the
# latter.  I don't know how portable this will be, but it's the only thing I
# can come up with that actually works.

# We have to tell MakeMaker to find libremctl here.
$PATH = '@abs_top_builddir@/client/.libs';

# Hack the local path into lddlflags so that it will be first.  Otherwise, we
# may accidentally build against an already installed libremctl instead of the
# one that we just built.

my $additions = "-L$PATH @LDFLAGS@";

# Override extliblist so that it never puts anything relative to the build
# directory into LD_RUN_PATH.  Otherwise, ExtUtils::Liblist will hard-code the
# build directory into the rpath of the module .so because it's trying to be
# *way* too helpful.
