Unfortunately there are packages that have issues with existing libs. Parts of 
that are caused by libtool and can often be fixed by the libtool.eclass 
elibtoolize function. I don't know why xine-lib blocks, and I believe that a 
fix would be wanted, but in some cases such a thing is the only option.
