NAME

chrpath - change the rpath or runpath in binaries  

SYNOPSIS

chrpath [ -v | --version ] [ -d | --delete ] [ -r <path> |  --replace <path> ] [ -c | --convert ] [ -l | --list ] [ -k | --keepgoing ] [ -h | --help ] <program> [ <program> ... ]  

DESCRIPTION

chrpath changes, lists or removes the rpath or runpath setting in a binary. The rpath, or runpath if it is present, is where the runtime linker should look for the libraries needed for a program.  

OPTIONS

-v | --version

Display program version number

-d | --delete

Delete current rpath or runpath setting

-c | --convert

Convert the rpath setting into a runpath setting

-r <path> | --replace <path>

Replace current rpath or runpath setting with the path given

-k | --keepgoing

Do not fail on first error, but process all arguments before returning the error.

-l | --list

List the current rpath or runpath (default)

-h | --help

Show usage information.

 

EXIT STATUS

0

If all operations were successful

>0

if one of the operations failed. A failing operation terminates the program unless -k is specified.
