Your binaries and shared objects need to contain the correct RPATH or RUNPATH 
entries, there is several tools to help with that:

chrpath and patchelf[1] can be used to change the RPATH or RUNPATH of an already 
installed program or shared object

If you cannot ensure absolute paths, the relative option might still work, where 
an element of the RPATH starts with $ORIGIN.

Regards, Thomas

[1] patchelf is more general and can handle RPATHs getting longer which chrpath 
cannot IIRC
