The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of GNU Libtool 1.5.24. GNU Libtool hides the complexity of using shared libraries behind a consistent, portable interface. GNU Libtool ships with GNU libltdl, which hides the comlexity of loading dynamic runtime libraries (modules) behind a consistent, portable interface.
This release has all the improvements in 1.5.23b and some other fixes, see the NEWS below. libtool-1.5.24 is available now from ftp.gnu.org, along with diffs and xdeltas against libtool-1.5.22 that are also available from ftp.gnu.org. Please use a mirror to reduce stress on the main gnu machine: http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html Here are the compressed sources: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-1.5.24.tar.gz Here are the xdeltas and diffs against libtool-1.5.22: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.diff.gz ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.xdelta.txt Here are the gpg detached signatures: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-1.5.24.tar.gz.sig ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.diff.gz.sig ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.xdelta.txt.sig You should download the signature named after any tarball you download, and then verify its integrity with, for example: gpg --verify libtool-1.5.24.tar.gz.sig Here are the MD5 and SHA1 checksums: d0071c890101fcf4f2be8934a37841b0 libtool-1.5.24.tar.gz bad22caf2a664753a970544eda10165a libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.diff.gz 0c4baad75ab4b7e229bfec7e15d4d143 libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.xdelta.txt b4c994f1bf4a76d2b0c1d0a6f54d16598c15f3db libtool-1.5.24.tar.gz fdd12e6ec3b39373b086361996552d4c5f038886 libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.diff.gz 57fe4bdf16357370bee67f172ffd1fe017cce1d9 libtool-1.5.22-1.5.24.xdelta.txt Note that somewhere in the confusion about this upload the xdeltas got renamed and have a .txt extension. New in 1.5.24: June 26 2007 * Initial support for Interix newer than version 3. * Use getconf ARG_MAX to find the max command line length. * Bug Fixes. New in 1.5.23b: 2007-02-17; * New link flag `-static-libtool-libs' to provide the semantics that `-static' had between 1.5 and 1.5.22. * Initial support for RDOS. * Fix regression on DragonFly that disabled library hardcoding. * Fix regression on OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly, and other systems with hardcode_direct=yes that wrongly removed paths to uninstalled libraries during link mode. * Let libltdl know that FreeBSD and DragonFly dlopen causes dependent modules to be loaded. This fixes excessive load times for modules with large library dependency graphs. * Fix error with -version-info on systems with version_type=none, such as BeOS. * Initial support for the Sun compiler suite on GNU/Linux. * Improved support for GNU/kFreeBSD and GNU/NetBSD. * Search paths with GCC on multilib systems like x86_64 have been fixed. * The libtool --tag argument which has been supported since version 1.5 is documented now. * Fix regression in libltdl symbol exports on Cygwin. Side effect: LT_GLOBAL_DATA and LT_SCOPE are now explicitly defined as declspec(dllexport), bypassing auto-export logic on Cygwin. This tracks existing behavior on MinGW. * Bug Fixes. This release was bootstrapped with Autoconf 2.61 and Automake 1.10, but is useable with Autoconf 2.50 & later and Automake 1.4 & later in your own projects. Alternatively, you can fetch the unbootstrapped sourcecode from anonymous cvs by using the following commands (just hit return when you are prompted for the password): $ export CVS_RSH=ssh $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/libtool \ co -r release-1-5-24 libtool You will then need to have recent versions of Automake and Autoconf installed to bootstrap the checked out sources yourself. Please report bugs to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, along with the verbose output of any failed test groups, and the output from `./libtool --config.'
