Hi,

My colleague Ivan already sent this question to this mailing list, but
it looks like his email hasn't landed.

We are trying to run dejagnu/gdb testsuite on QEMU (RISCV) on Linux.
Some tests that pass on the local machine fail as they expect having
shared libs or other binary files at hardcoded paths on a machine
(QEMU in our case) where the binary is running.

Question is: is it ok to patch gdb testsuite to get rid of hardcoded
paths. Or maybe this is something intentional?

Example: gdb.base/print-file-var.exp, see SHLIB_NAME variable.

With best regards, Konstantin
