There's a workaround for all inscure RUNPATH problems in

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3072660.html#3072660

shall we include this comment on bug #81745?

[Comment 3 Stefan Cornelius (RETIRED) 2006-02-01 08:37:55 UTC]

gnome herd please verify and provide fixed ebuilds, thank you.

[Comment 4 solar (RETIRED) 2006-03-05 08:03:14 UTC]

The next ~arch portage revision will auto repair evil rpaths and not bail. 
Maintainers should still fix the packages they maintain as portage will only die
with FEATURES=stricter (but that is a maintainer & QA problem) no longer security@

[Comment 5 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-09-21 03:47:42 UTC]

No longer a security issue with current stable portage, re-assigning to maintainer.

[Comment 6 Leonardo Boshell (RETIRED) 2006-11-09 09:02:26 UTC]

No longer reproducible.
