+\r
+Right. Debian doesn't want this either.\r
+\r
+Some of what I've wanted to do in "make install" to help with this:\r
+\r
+  * Figure out the right way to run "ldconfig" from "make install"\r
+\r
+  * Test if the runtime linker will be able to find the library, and if\r
+    not print a message about setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or\r
+    DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH).\r
+\r
+Setting rpath with the option to prevent this might be possible too. But\r
+we can't do this unconditionally.\r
