Hi,

With respect to fdo#45090, that is the GNU/Linux dlopen() does not
find libldap50.so when loading PostgreSQL-SDBC's
postgresql-sdbc-impl.uno.so.

"Naturally", libldap50.so is in $INSTALL_DIR/program/.

Have we already solved this problem, and if yes, how do I apply the
solution to PostgreSQL-SDBC?

The "solution" is that extensions must only link against the handful oflibraries in the URE interface (basically cppu, cppuhelper, sal,salhelper) and not against any others provided by LO. Everything elseis not supported and is an error.

The best fix would probably be to change postgresql-sdbc.oxt from abundled extension into an -- optionally installable, but "proper" --part of the installation.

A workaround hack for Linux would indeed be to modify RPATH, see<http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2012-January/023463.html>(RUNPATH is link-time only, btw.).
