Hi Andy,

thanks for the patch.

It’s not a good idea to disable RUNPATH validation, because it usually
shows you that something might be wrong.  In this package the problem is
that the RUNPATH does not include the lib/gthumb/extensions
directory.

I’m still fighting with a handful of binaries that don’t seem to get the
right RUNPATH, but once that’s done I’ll push the updated patch to the
master branch.
