Either I misunderstood --enable-absolute-shared-libs (quite possible) or it didn't work. I'd appreciate any help on this, please.
I downloaded gambc-4.6.9.tar.gz (the latest package), compiled and installed in ~/.local/Gambit-C/ (multiple versions enabled) with symlinks in ~/.local/{bin,lib/gambc,include/gambc/} on an Ubuntu-based system.
I expected --enable-absolute-shared-libs to record the location of the shared libraries in the executables but this didn't happen. I can run gsi by setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH but not without doing that. I verified with `readelf -d' that the information is not there.
I didn't see any relevant compiler options in the output of `make' either, so before I investigate this path further: is this something that --enable-absolute-share-libs is not even meant to do? If so, is there (was there for 4.6.9) some other support for this?
I didn't bootstrap. It didn't seem required by INSTALL.txt for this.
