I've CC'd. The problem is building a program using libtool && libltdl, then when trying to link, getting: ... undefined reference to `lt__PROGRAM__LTX_preloaded_symbols' After *much* rooting through the libtool && libltdl code, my rant is here: http://lists.cistron.nl/pipermail/freeradius-users/2009-September/msg00149.html It is a *horrible* bug. Just use Google to search for "lt__PROGRAM__LTX_preloaded_symbols", and you'll get *tons* of hits from people trying to figure out and work around this program. We've worked around it locally be enabling some disgusting hacks in the code that are used only when you define the pre-processor directive: CFLAGS += -DIE_LIBTOOL_DIE Yes, I'm upset. I've spent 10 years using libtool & libltdl. We're at the point where they come close to *creating* more problems than they solve. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
