0011914: rpath provided libs is ignored when using FindPackage
I'm linking a library (libproxy for that matter) against another library providing a pkgconfig .pc file (mozilla-js for what it matters here).

"pkg-config --libs mozilla-js" returns:
-Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib64/xulrunner-2.0 -L/usr/lib64/xulrunner-devel-2.0b12/lib -lmozjs -lplds4 -lplc4 -lnspr4 -lpthread -ldl

When building the module at the end, the rpath to /usr/lib64/xulrunner-2.0 does not exist, but one to /usr/lib64/xulrunner-devel-2.0b12/lib is inserted into the shared object, as seen here:

readelf -a /usr/lib64/libproxy-0.4.6/modules/pacrunner_mozjs.so | grep rpath
 0x000000000000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [/usr/lib64/xulrunner-devel-2.0b12/lib]

This is ignoring explicit build instructions provided by the pkgconfig file provider.
Have a .pc file that specifies explicit rpath for your linker.
An example of this happening is when building libproxy on openSUSE.
No tags attached.

Sending old, never assigned issues to the backlog.

(The age of the bug, plus the fact that it's never been assigned to anyone means that nobody is actively working on it...)

If an issue you care about is sent to the backlog when you feel it should have been addressed in a different manner, please bring it up on the CMake mailing list for discussion. Sign up for the mailing list here, if you're not already on it: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake [^]

It's easy to re-activate a bug here if you can find a CMake developer who has the bandwidth to take it on, and ferry a fix through to our 'next' branch for dashboard testing.
