FWIW, below please find a copy of the /usr/lib/libstdc++.la from a SLES9 machine. I find no such file on my main Debian system, even though "dpkg -l" indicates libtool is installed there.
Good luck, and allow me to suggest that if you plan on trying to figure out how to make productive use of libtool/automake then (if they're still the same mess they were as when I was trying to decypher them circa 2000-2001) you might want to wear a shower-cap so you don't soil the upholstery when your head explodes... ######## modsuse1:/tmp 58---> ll /usr/lib/libstdc++.la -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 791 2004-06-30 13:21 /usr/lib/libstdc++.la ######## modsuse1:/tmp 59---> cat /usr/lib/libstdc++.la # libstdc++.la - a libtool library file # Generated by ltmain.sh - GNU libtool 1.4a-GCC3.0 (1.641.2.256 2001/05/28 20:09:07 with GCC-local changes) # # Please DO NOT delete this file! # It is necessary for linking the library. # The name that we can dlopen(3). dlname='libstdc++.so.5' # Names of this library. library_names='libstdc++.so.5.0.6 libstdc++.so.5 libstdc++.so' # The name of the static archive. old_library='libstdc++.a' # Libraries that this one depends upon. dependency_libs=' -lm -lgcc_s -lc -lgcc_s -lm -lgcc_s -lc -lgcc_s' # Version information for libstdc++. current=5 age=0 revision=6 # Is this an already installed library? installed=yes # Files to dlopen/dlpreopen dlopen='' dlpreopen='' # Directory that this library needs to be installed in: libdir='/usr/lib' _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
