Using the GNU stow program, here's how I have it setup on my system:
(the ./ is really /usr/local/stow/realplayer)
./lib
./lib/raplayer
./lib/raplayer/libdecdnet.so
./lib/raplayer/libra14_4.so
./lib/raplayer/libra28_8.so
./lib/raplayer/libradnet.so
./lib/raplayer/librarv10.so
./lib/raplayer/librasipr.so
./lib/raplayer/librv10dec.so
./lib/raplayer/rvplayer
./bin
./bin/ra
.. and here is the contents of bin/ra:
#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib/raplayer" /usr/local/lib/raplayer/rvplayer $*
In netscape, I set it up to use '/usr/local/bin/ra %s' as the program to
run for .rm, .ra, and .ram files.
It works for me [tm], but I'm sure there are other/better ways to do it.
