But depending on LD_LIBRARY_PATH to do that is not the way to do it.
This article http://xahlee.org/UnixResource_dir/_/ldpath.html
describes pretty much my view.

But that's not the problem. The problem is line 114-115 in
DynamicLibrary.cpp. For 'other unix' the operating system never gets
the chance to search for the shared lib by itself. It is either
whatever OSG does (ie in osgDB::findLibraryFile), or "./". It is
wrong.
