Bug 152291 – REGRESSION (r194022): Production builds of PluginProcess crash on launch when not installed in /System

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit2

<rdar://problem/23886216>

On El Capitan, the legacy processes link normally against the shims, but are still launched with DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES pointing to the shim, so when run from a non-/System location, the shim is loaded from the non-/System location thanks to DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES. After <http://trac.webkit.org/r194022> changed the install name of the shim, the load command in the main executable points at a non-existent path in /System, so the linker crashes the process.

Patch forthcoming.
