I've been writing configure.ac scripts for a long time, and now, unexpectedly, on a new Kubuntu 11.04 installation and on a Fedora 15 install, libtool not longer generates and installs shared objects. Same scripts I've used before, different behavior.
Note: The configure.ac/Makefile.am in question DID install shared objects in the past. When I run configure, it states: checking whether the gcc linker (/usr/bin/ld -m elf_x86_64) supports shared libraries... yes checking whether -lc should be explicitly linked in... no checking dynamic linker characteristics... GNU/Linux ld.so checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate checking whether stripping libraries is possible... yes checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes checking whether to build shared libraries... yes checking whether to build static libraries... yes Upon running make install, I see: test -z "/usr/local/lib" || /bin/mkdir -p "/usr/local/lib" /bin/bash ../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c libbrahe.la '/usr/local/lib' libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c .libs/libbrahe.lai /usr/local/lib/libbrahe.la libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c .libs/libbrahe.a /usr/local/lib/libbrahe.a libtool: install: chmod 644 /usr/local/lib/libbrahe.a libtool: install: ranlib /usr/local/lib/libbrahe.a I've hunted up and down, to no avail, trying to figure out what's wrong. Did something change in a recent update to autotools? My versions are: libtool 2.2.6b automake 1.11.1 autoconf 2.67 The actual library code can be downloaded from http://www.coyotegulch.com/products/brahe/index.html Brahe Library -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/libtool-not-generating---installing-.so%2C-even-tho-config-says-it-should-tp32001082p32001082.html Sent from the Gnu - Libtool - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
