Which would result in a huge security hole to have rpath set to e.g.
/var/tmp/... Therefore I currently patch the Makefile to use "-rpath
/usr/lib" instead. I didn't succeed in removing "-rpath" completely
since .lai files are not created in this case and are tried to be
installed which again results in a build fail. :-(

In short, a working "--disable-rpath" would be really appreciated. ;-)

Best regards,
Stefan
