Maemo depends packages

No, no, you don't need to export LD_LIBRARY_PATH, just start your application the way I put it

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/appname/lib /opt/appname/bin/appexecutable

really, that's it, that specifies the environment var for that application, it will not (and should not !) appear anywhere else (as you should not interfere with the paths for other applications). No postinsts, no exports, just the above at the exact place you're starting your app.

On a side note - don't forget that Maemo has busybox and not full bash by default so a few shell things might not work as expected if you take bash for granted.

YES Right
we have done that from esbox and we added symbol LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/appname/bin/

but it has no effect
please check attached image

I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing here. Where exactly have you added LD_LIBRARY_PATH ? You have not put in in front of ldd so it does not find the libs - as expected.

You're welcome... in fact, I might make a wiki page out of this with ready-made files so it's a bit easier to follow through.

Dear achipa,
please update your article
alternative solution that we can compile the application by modifying project config file or project make file
and configure LDFLAGS like this
LDFLAGS='-Wl,-rpath,/opt/appname/lib:/usr/lib'
this will let application be launched without LD_LIBRARY_PATH option

Hey, never said it was ready But yes, rpath is certainly an option, probably even better than the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for this particular usage.
