Looks like editorconfig is built with the assumption that the required dynamic libraries will be on the system search path, which may not always be the case. Could you update the linker flags and have it look in a relative rpath, as shown here?

Works for me. There is no need for relocation to support your use case. Absolute RPATHs work fine.
