+## Enable RPATH linking by default {: #rpath }
+
+[RPATH linking][rpath_support] is enabled by default in EasyBuild v5.0 (see [easybuild-framework PR #4448](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4448)).
+
+The benefits for enabling RPATH are explained in [Why RPATH?][rpath_support_why].
+
+This enhancement **does not** add any filtering of environment variables. This means `$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
+will continue to be appended by the environment module files EasyBuild generates,
+unless it is configured to filter these variables (via `--filter-env-vars`,
+see also [Relation to `$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`][rpath_support_LD_LIBRARY_PATH]).
+
+To disable RPATH linking, either:
+
+* Use the `--disable-rpath` command line option;
+* Set the `$EASYBUILD_DISABLE_RPATH` environment variable;
+* Disable RPATH linking in an EasyBuild [configuration file](../configuration.md#configuration_file):
+
+    ``` ini
+    [override]
+    rpath=0
+    ```
