The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of GNU Libtool 1.5.12.
GNU Libtool hides the complexity of using shared libraries behind a consistent, portable interface. GNU Libtool ships with GNU libltdl, which hides the comlexity of loading dynamic runtime libraries (modules) behind a consistent, portable interface.
This release has a number of bug fixes and improvements.
New in 1.5.12: Sunday, February 5th, 2005
* Support for Portland Group compiler on GNU/Linux. * Support (mostly) for DragonFly BSD. * Updated support for Intel compilers on GNU/Linux. * Makes use of $datarootdir, which is necessary for Autoconf >= 2.60. * Fix for a buffer overrun in the opendir/readdir replacement code. This code was used by older versions of MinGW only. * Some compiler/linker flags commonly used to select ABI features are allowed through in link mode. This fixes some 64bit build failures and Darwin's -framework. * Handling of archives that have multiple members with the same name on Darwin. * Relaxed copyright permissions for the .m4 macro files. * Bug Fixes, among others for: GNU/Linux search path parsing, a Tru64 kernel panic, UNICOS, linking of dependent libraries.

This release was bootstrapped with autoconf-2.59 and automake-1.9.4, but is useable with autoconf-2.50 and automake-1.4 in your own projects.
Alternatively, you can fetch the unbootstrapped sourcecode from anonymous cvs by using the following commands (just hit return when you are prompted for the password):
$ export CVS_RSH=ssh $ cvs -z3 -d :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/libtool \ co -r release-1-5-12 libtool
You will then need to have the latest release versions of Automake (1.9.4) and Autoconf (2.59) installed to bootstrap the checked out sources yourself.
Please report bugs to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
