Hi,
  Our current configuration on our production linux boxes is that we use a predefined library location and copy all the libraries we have built to that directory and our executable use that location. In our build box we install our libraries to the same predefined location. My problem occurs when we have 3rd party libraries that we need some of our applications to link to. I created the following jamfile and this copies over the 3rd party library correctly. The problem through is that when I try to run the application it tries to find the library in the original 3rd party location, which defeats the whole purpose.

# jamfile to copy 3rd party libraries
lib libXYZ
        : #Sources
        : <file>./3rdpartylibrarypath/libXYZ.so
        ;

install dist
        : libXYZ
        : <location>/ourlibpath

any suggestions?

Thank you,
Hazel
