There are also at least two hot points at the interface between automake and libtool that may need work on both sides.
- unifying locks between libtool and compile - the relinking dependency debacle: For libtool to relink libraries when installing them, all dependencies must have been installed. However automake cannot pre-compute this installation order when it is run, and computing it at compile-time look overly complicated and error prone. Instead, would it make sense to support a two-stage install as follows: 1. install all programs and libraries without relinking (in random order) 2. relink everything (in random order) Would this work? (I think I already asked and the answer was no, but I cannot find that answer in the archive.) -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
