>Description:
I can not run an gcj compiled executable without
setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH or passing a special
argument for the runtime linker.

% cat InnerInterface2.java
// File InnerInterface2.java

public class InnerInterface2 {
    interface Inter {
        public static final int NUM = 0;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Inter i = new foo();
        System.out.println(i.NUM);
    }
}

class foo implements InnerInterface2.Inter {}



% gcj -o InnerInterface2 --main=InnerInterface2 InnerInterface2.java

% ./InnerInterface2
./InnerInterface2: error in loading shared libraries
libgcj.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

If I pass the the lib directory where libgcj is installed, it seems to
work just fine.

% gcj -o InnerInterface2 --main=InnerInterface2 InnerInterface2.java \
-Wl,-rpath,/mnt/image/install/lib

% ./InnerInterface2
0


I should not need to pass the location where libgcj is installed to
be able to just run an executable produced by gcj. The gcj executable
should do this for me.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
The location of the lib where libgcj is installed should
be passed to the runtime linker automatically.
