glibtool is provided by apple's developer tools, since every developer has these installed, they tend to assume that everyone has them installed.

For the moment, if you get the libtool14 package via apt-get, then dpkg can do the configure stage of gnome-python, I am almost certain that calling glibtool --finish, is unnecessary anyway, but dpkg/dselect et. al. will complain endlessly unless the package is properly configured.

I was using fink 0.5.0a (dselect actually) to install 'gramps' and

And indeed there is no '*glibtool*' on the machine (according to
'find / ...').

On the other hand, 'gramps' runs and I haven't found any
particular problems with it.

Any idea why glibtool is referenced but missing or what I need to do
to make sure gramps is happy?
