Re: How CLSQL finds and loads foreign libraries

Overall, you're patch looks quite helpful. However, I'm not of you how
you envisioned being able to specify absolute library pathnames not in
the operation systems paths.

Specifically, I'm working on making your patch work for the CLSQL
debian package. Debian policy requires the shared library objects to
go into a private directory under /usr/lib. Currently, I'm using
/usr/lib/clsql.

For situations like Debian while a path is required outside the source
directory, user homedirectory, and outside the system paths, what
mechanism is there to specify an absolute pathname?

Thanks!
