It's not in the NEEDED section because it is loaded dynamically at runtime with dlopen.
man dlopen state: (ELF only) If the calling object contains a DT_RUNPATH tag, then the directories listed in that tag are searched..
I don't know how would that not work for @xiota. Here a test program: https://pastebin.com/g6HMN0ba
Compile and run it with gcc -Wl,-rpath=/opt/pcsx2 -ldl test_dlopen.c && ./a.out and tell us what you get. It should print /opt/pcsx2.
Sounds good. Let me know when or if you want :)
@xiota the man page for ld.so(8) apparently says that DT_RUNPATH is only used for dependencies located in the DT_NEEDED section, but this build doesn't put libshaderc_shared.so.1 there for some reason. I don't know what the harm in forcing that dependecy would be though. This goes back to PCSX2 is built in a strange way, but mitigating that is part of this process, I guess. Looking into the appimage, it's not in that section either, but runpath is indeed set to '$ORIGIN/../lib'.
Btw @xiota, do you want to be a co-maintainer on this package?
@xiota If you build from https://github.com/xmusjackson/pcsx2-git, do you have the same result? Note, that package doesn't require shaderc-non-semantic-debug. A linux binary should always check LD_LIBRARY_PATH then DT_RUNPATH inside the binary. I'm sure you cleared shader cache too, but patlefort is correct that there are also shaders inside .config/PCSX2/cache/.

This package now enables Cmake Package mode proper. PCSX2 will here on, be installed in the package standard folders /usr/bin, /usr/share, /usr/lib. Following the XDG standard pcsx2's config files remain in .config/PCSX2
In order to ensure a proper and clean upgrade. Uninstall this package COMPLETELY and clear cache before reinstalling.
