Description
I'm using the CPython configure flags --enable-shared with an rpath interpolation (LDFLAGS). Linux platform (RHEL 8.3).
The interpreter's stdlib venv works just fine, but poetry installer doesn't like something about that config
$ readelf -d /usr/local/bin/python3.11 | grep rpath
0x000000000000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [$ORIGIN/../lib]
$ ldd /usr/local/bin/python3.11 | grep libpython
libpython3.11.so.1.0 => /usr/local/bin/../lib/libpython3.11.so.1.0 (0x00007ffff7632000)
$ curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | /usr/local/bin/python3.11 -

Research direction
Start by reproducing the shared-library failure with the installer command and inspect the installer code around the reported run and main locations (lines 552 and 919). Done means the installer completes successfully when Python uses a shared libpython3.so found through its runtime search path.
