I've never found a clean way to get rid of RPATH from within autotools.  
However, I just tried with the libtool butchering option from 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Removing_Rpath and 
it seemed to work fine.

$ autoreconf -ivf
$ ./configure --prefix=/var/tmp/daq-install
$ sed -i 
's|^hardcode_libdir_flag_spec=.*|hardcode_libdir_flag_spec=""|g' libtool
$ sed -i 's|^runpath_var=LD_RUN_PATH|runpath_var=DIE_RPATH_DIE|g' libtool
$ make install
$ find /var/tmp/daq-install/lib -name "*.so" | xargs readelf -d | grep RPATH
<nothing>

Without the hack, you'd see this:
$ find /var/tmp/daq-install/lib -name "*.so" | xargs readelf -d | grep RPATH
  0x000000000000000f (RPATH)              Library rpath: 
[/var/tmp/daq-install/lib]
  0x000000000000000f (RPATH)              Library rpath: 
[/var/tmp/daq-install/lib]
  0x000000000000000f (RPATH)              Library rpath: 
[/var/tmp/daq-install/lib]
