Hello Gary I resend my question from gmail.
Most likely your libhdf.la has -L/usr/libs in its dependency_libs entry. > You can fix that by editing the libhdf.la file to pass the library name by > its full path, or by adjusting the install process of libhdf not to record > -L/usr/libs there. > dependency_libs in libhdf5.la does not contain -L/usr/lib. I have already checked that. dependency_libs=' -lpthread -lz -lm' Regards Christian I link 3 libraries with libtool. The first one is linked with hdf lib that is in system (/usr/lib), the second one is linked with vtk lib that is not in system ($VTKHOME) and the third one is linked with the 2 previous libs. The problem is that there is another vtlk lib in system (/usr/lib) and libtool adds an -L/usr/lib when adding hdf dependency so my third lib is linked with the two vtk libs (in system and in VTKHOME). I have not found a way to handle this situation. What would be the right way ? Here is a simplified script of my link: cd src/p1 /bin/sh ../../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link g++ -o libhello.la -rpath /local/cchris/pkg/libtool/test22/myinstall/lib hello.lo -lhdf5 cd ../p2 /bin/sh ../../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link g++ -o libprog.la -rpath /local/cchris/pkg/libtool/test22/myinstall/lib prog.lo -L/local/cchris/pkg/vtk/install/lib/vtk-5.6 -lvtkCommon cd ../p3 /bin/sh ../../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link g++ -o libviewer.la -rpath /local/cchris/pkg/libtool/test22/myinstall/lib viewer.lo ../p1/libhello.la../p2/ libprog.la Regards Christian Caremoli
