Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 05/10] Replace RTLD_LOCAL with RTLD_GLOBAL

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com&gt; Since we have drivers which depend on each other (ie QEMU/LXC depend on the network driver APIs), we need to use RTLD_GLOBAL instead of RTLD_LOCAL. While this pollutes the calling binary with many more symbols, this is no worse than if we directly link to the drivers, and this only applies to libvirtd * src/driver.c: s/RTLD_LOCAL/RTLD_GLOBAL/ Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
