LD_LIBRARY_PATH Not Working?

[Erik]

Hello everyone.

I am compiling on linux and running on linux, so I'd like to keep the
size of the binary down.

I tried compiling with --onedir and then just doing LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/
lib ./PROG as I read in one of the posts on this group, but it doesn't
work, it still looks for the libraries in the current working
directory.

Thanks for your help.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is overridden in the bootloader. So it won't to set
LD_LIBRARY_PATH before starting your frozen app.

Thanks Martin, that makes sense.

So is there any way to set this path during compile time so that I can
tell it to use a specific directory?

Thanks,

You will need to hardcode it in the C code of the bootloader and
recompile the bootloader in ./trunk/source/ folder.

The file to modify is in ./trunk/source/linux/utils.c. There is the code
which sets the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

For details how to compile the bootloader from source see pyinstaller
manual.

Awesome thank you.

One last question, instead of tweaking LD_LIBRARY_PATH, how can I
tweak the path that the archive gets extracted to at run that occurs
wit the onefile option? Apps compiled with pyinstaller won't work on /
tmp directories that have noexec mount options, so I need to get
around this by being able to set my own tmp path.

Thank you.

Anyone? Is there a way to change that path to where the _MEIXXXX
folder gets extract to?

Thanks!

Of course :-) But only in the C code :-(

Care to point me in the write direction? I am more than willing to
modify the C code.

Thanks,

Well, I'm not the one knows the C-source, sorry. But
source/common/main.c and launch.c may be a good starting point.

[Erik]

launch.c it was ;)
