Most information was present before this message, but only with this one I finally got the hint. It's a bug when libtoolize --ltdl succeeds although it did not find the libltdl source files. Surely doesn't happen with source-built Libtool, only when packaged separately. Suggestion for improved check in OpenMPI below (patch against branches/v1.0). I'll post a bugfix for Libtool, and Cc: this list and the Debian maintainer about this then. Thanks very much for reporting this, and patience with me. Do I gather correctly that your remaining open issues with OpenMPI (once libltdl3 and libltdl3-dev are installed) are not autotools-related? Cheers, Ralf Note for the patch: Libtool 2.0 will enable to directly put libltdl in opal/libltdl; the change below copes with that.
