NAME

       chrpath - change the rpath or runpath in binaries

SYNOPSIS

       chrpath  [  -v  |  --version  ] [ -d | --delete ] [ -r <path> |  --replace <path> ] [ -c |
       --convert ] [ -l | --list ] [ -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.  The new path must be
              shorter or the same length as the current path.

       -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.

BUGS

       This program cannot create an RPATH tag if the ELF does not have  one,  and  it  can  only
       replace  an  RPATH  with  one of equal or shorter length. (Moving ELF sections following a
       lengthened string table would be difficult and  error-prone  at  best,  and  is  sometimes
       outright impossible due to issues like limited ranges in jump instructions.)
