So far the options I have been given are:
- Write an LD_LIBRARY_PATH wrapper script
This is very ugly, meaning I have to rename the binaries, move them to
/usr/lib, all for the sake of setting one env variable.
- Rename all libraries into the form libpackagenamelibraryname.so
This is also ugly - the filesystem has heirarchical namespaces built in,
they are called directories.
- Explicitly dlopen
Yeah sure, I'll write a few hundred lines of code, push them to upstream
and try to explain why the code should be integrated "because Debian says
so".
- Move the libs back into /usr/lib
This is easiest, and the most likely solution. Basically involves moving my
problem to being someone elses - if a future library name collides that's
just too bad.
