Maybe as a customer you should tell them about this bad experience. They should either set RPATH in their programs or should set LD_LIBRARY_PATH only in a start wrapper script.
In a program that lets the user start other programs, RPATH should be preferred or  LD_LIBRARY_PATH should be cleaned up for child processes.
