I just ran into an issue build the jpeg package on OS X where it
needs to have shared libraries enabled, which in turn requires
having a copy of ./libtool in the build directory to build the
shared libraries.
One problem is that there is no configure.ac or configure.in in
the dorectory so aclocal and libtoolize. It worked when I copied
the %{l_prefix}/bin/libtool script into the directory, which
probably comes under the term Crude Hacks(tm).
I would like to make the jpeg package depend on the libtool
package, but I don't really know how to define conditionals in
the top part of a SPEC file that match patterns. It's easy
enough in the scripted parts to use ``case "%{l_target t}"'''.
I have seen some %defines that execute shell scripts, but these
seem even more of a kludge -- not to mention I would have to dig
through some ancient Caldera SRPMS to remember how they work.
