That's the source directory, try: "find / -name 'libdar*' -print

dar's default configure script usually creates Makefiles that will
create
a binary with a built-in search path
to the install location libdar (--rpath), so you do not have to
put that library path into your /etc/ld.so.conf (the extra library
search path configuration file) and run ldconfig.

Hence --disable-rpath certainly wouldn't improve matters ;-)

And what are the contents of that file?

Just installed dar on OpenSuSE 10.2 and it seems
that dar's configure doesn't do the rpath thing, if
dar's install library path is already in the default search
path.

Hence, you only need to run "ldconfig" after the
installation and everything should work.
