I can see no reason why it should.  Passing `-L[path] -l[basename]' will
happily pick up a system .so library even if there is no associated .la file.
~ A quick scan through ltmain.in doesn't reveal any code to deliberately ignore
absolute library paths as far as I can see.  Looks like a bug to me :-(
What exactly are you linking?

Cheers,
Gary.

lftp 2.6.10 linking against the gettext libraries on HP-UX. Because
the author used $(INTLLIBS) instead of $(LTLIBINTL), he got the .sl
versions of the gettext libraries. I fixed it on the 1.5 branch but I
just hacked together a solution for now.

I'd send you a diff of my ltmain.in but savannah is still down :(

libtool .. [path to shared library] ...

Repost as the first try didn't garner a response.

If I invoke libtool as so:
  $ libtool ... [path to shared library] ...
is libtool suppose to pass [path to shared library] to the final link
stage? It's ignoring anything on the command line that ends with
*$shrext.
