That's really a long time. Note to everyone using libtool: if you have patches which are generally useful, please post them here so we can discuss and eventually incorporate them. Having less different libtool versions floating around is better. (/me also waves to Daniel Reed with a big "excuse me" for having let work on the lib/lib64 issue slide.) > IRC channels are a bad place for bug reports :( ACK. > I believe it was a failure in libtool on some of the > more bizarre platforms, like sparc-opensbd. Hmm. > If you are interested in having libtool tested on bizarre platforms, I > suggest asking Riccardo to do a round of make checking 1.5.16. Riccardo: could you be bothered to do so? If you test libtool itself, using 1.5.16 is fine. If you decide to test a package that uses libltdl, please wait for 1.5.18 or use branch-1-5 from CVS. Of course, testing the other branches would be great as well, but please wait for the next 2.0 alpha then. Regards, Ralf > [1] http://www.kaffe.org/pipermail/kaffe/2004-March/097374.html
