This loader used LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH, and for backwards ;; compatibility we still support that path. ;; ;; However, libltdl would not only open ".so" (or ".dll", etc) files, ;; but also the ".la" files created by libtool. In installed libraries ;; -- libraries that are in the target directories of "make install" -- ;; .la files are never needed, to the extent that most GNU/Linux ;; distributions remove them entirely. It is sufficient to just load ;; the ".so" (or ".dll", etc) files. ;; ;; But for uninstalled dynamic libraries, like those in a build tree, it ;; is a bit of a mess. If you have a project that uses libtool to build ;; libraries -- which is the case for Guile, and for most projects using ;; autotools -- and you build foo.so in directory D, libtool will put ;; foo.la in D, but foo.so goes in D/.libs. ;; ;; The nice thing about ltdl was that it could load the .la file, even ;; from a build tree, preventing the existence of ".libs" from leaking ;; out to the user. ;; ;; We don't use libltdl now, essentially for flexibility and ;; error-reporting reasons. But, it would be nice to keep this old ;; use-case working. So as a stopgap solution, we add a ".libs" subdir ;; to the path for each entry in LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH, in case the .so is ;; there instead of alongside the .la file.
