question on ebl openbackend dlopen()

Hi.

Can anyone tell me how the dlopen() calls work on a Fedora system if a static libdw is used?

On SuSE systems, if libdw.so is used (containing relevant libebl) I see the first dlopen("$ORIGIN/../$LIB/elfutils/libebl_x86_64.so" succeed as: open("/usr/lib64/../lib64/elfutils/libebl_x86_64.so", O_RDONLY) = 8

If the code is statically linked against libdw.a the first dlopen attempts to generate a path "/{path_to_static_exe}/../lib64/elfutils/libebl_x86_64.so" which fails. The second basename dlopen() attempts a path search but this never looks in the "elfutils" subfolder.
