correct docs on JULIA_HDF5_PATH search path #1032

Closed stevengj closed 1 year ago

stevengj commented 1 year ago

The docs say that it searches $JULIA_HDF5_PATH/lib and $JULIA_HDF5_PATH/lib64 for the libraries, but according to the code it also searches $JULIA_HDF5_PATH directly.

I'm ok with merging this, but I think we should probably deprecate this mechanism in favor of the Preferences.jl based JLL override mechanism. One could then either override the location via Overrides.toml in the Julia depot or LocalPreferences.toml in the project directory.
