A small utility to modify the dynamic linker and RPATH of ELF executables

PatchELF is a simple utility for modifying existing ELF executables and
libraries. In particular, it can do the following,

  • Change the dynamic loader ("ELF interpreter") of executables.
  • Change the RPATH of executables and libraries.
  • Shrink the RPATH of executables and libraries.
  • Remove declared dependencies on dynamic libraries (DTNEEDED
entries).
  • Add a declared dependency on a dynamic library (DTNEEDED).
  • Replace a declared dependency on a dynamic library with another one
(DT_NEEDED).
