[Nix-dev] Why not use SONAME instead of RPATH

[Silvio Frischknecht]

That's too bad about dlopen, but it's good to see that things are well
thought through. :)

"soname" is only in version patchelf-0.9. The manpage reads as follows.

       --print-soname
              Prints DT_SONAME entry of .dynamic section.  Raises an
              error if DT_SONAME doesn't exist.


       --set-soname SONAME
              Sets DT_SONAME entry of a library to SONAME.


Cheers
