Hi,

That works only for libraries linked at compile time however, while symlinks
works also for binaries, and for dynamically loaded libraries.
Why people would dlopen() a library themself if the primary goal was supposed to get better performance? Again, the process I described is the way to go. Packages doing otherwise are to be taught the right way.


Moreover, there are two different issues there: a packaging issue (should
optimisable package contains optimized code) and a system issue (how to
install this code to make it used).
The former issue is maintainer's. i.e. he should check whether it worth it and the actual gain doing so. The other issue is addressed as I described.

Bye,
Gwenole.
