I'm saying that your uninstalled Qt libraries have an RPATH set that does 
point to your libglib but not to your libdbus. I don't know why the one for 
glib is there and the other isn't, but it is the case. 

We didn't see it in your objdump -p output because you did it for the 
installed library, which has a trimmed RPATH.

Correct. But usually, all libraries obey the rule that a newer version is 
backwards compatible with the older one. If you compile with version X, you 
can run against any version Y >= X.
