I can confirm that when I turn of the NLINK_TRICK, the files are
correctly found and all is fixed.

I think we can close this case. I will create binaries for our own
purpose (cloud only run) where I turn of NLINK_TRICK completely.
That should fix the problem.

Thanks for helping debugging this!!!!

Best regards

Norbert
