Title: Symlinking Lib Directories?
Post by: maytagman on March 30, 2006, 11:10:42 am

Hello, I've noticed that if I install elements on the /mnt/user partition, they often use that as the root to search for their library dependencies in, is there a way to symlink the two partitions' libraries so that no matter which I install on, they can find what they need?

Im sure plenty of other have this problem.

ipkg-link (at least on OZ) is used to symlink files that are not installed to the root partition so that they appear to have been. This means that libs and hard-coded paths will work correctly.
