Asked the upstream of the gir stuff:

07:13 < _rene_> pranavk: ping?
07:13 < pranavk> _rene_: pong
07:14 < _rene_> pranavk: how is stuff using the gir stuff supposed to find 
                libreofficekitgtk.so? I mean, it's not in  public paths
07:14 -!- buovjaga [5b9ae2a0 at gateway/web/cgi-irc/kiwiirc.com/ip.91.154.226.160] 
          has joined #libreoffice-dev
07:15 < _rene_> pranavk: asking because of 
                https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=818433
07:17 < pranavk> _rene_: iirc, in fedora we copy it in in $libdir to find it
07:17 < _rene_> bah. :P
07:17 < pranavk> dtardon: ?
07:19 < _rene_> mv %{buildroot}%{baseinstdir}/program/liblibreofficekitgtk.so 
                %{buildroot}%{_libdir}
07:19 < _rene_> mmh, yeah
07:19 < pranavk> yeah

so other distros have it there directly.

I am not sure a RPATH will work given it's not linked with libreofficekitgtk.so.

I don't think we should add a gnome-desktop wrapper script doing LD_LIBRARY_PATH
- should we?
