Packaging notes

Notes about the design space for packaging/deployment systems

Idea to explore: Can we have a system that can target multiple packaging systems, such as both Debian and Zero-Install, using JHBuild-style package descriptions?

RPATHs

Building libraries in JHBuild generates libraries with RPATH fields. For example: 

$ objdump -x prefix/lib64/libxslt.so|grep RPATH
  RPATH       /home/mseaborn/jhbuild/prefix/lib64

What causes this?
