[gentoo-user] libtool

[gentoo-user] libtool

[dhk]

I recently ran a make clean on a C/Gtk program I'm developing and now
can't run ./configure to rebuild it.  It looks like all my libtool links
are broken.  There were links to the following files, but now those
files don't exist.

/usr/share/libtool/ltmain.sh
/usr/share/libtool/config.sub
/usr/share/libtool/config.guess

Now there's an ltmain.sh in /usr/share/libtool/config/but I'm not sure
if I should use that one.

Also the root cause of this was probably an emerge I did this weekend
with the -e option.  Is something missing?

I ran fix_libtool_files.sh 3.4.6 which I think I did before and then ran
emerge --oneshot -av libtool and this didn't fix anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dave

/usr/share/libtool/config

no, nothing is missing - look into config

fix_libtool_files fixes *la files containing wrong stuff.

idea: there is nothing wrong but your symlinks.

It's good to know that it's just the symlinks.  I changed the one to
ltmain.sh, but when I run configure config/config.sub is still missing
and when I run make clean I still get the following.

 $ make clean cd . && /bin/sh
/home/max/Dev/Pos/Pos09/pos/trunk/config/missing --run automake-1.9 --gnu
configure.ac:53: required file `config/config.guess' not found
configure.ac:53: required file `config/config.sub' not found
configure.ac:45: required file `config/ltmain.sh' not found
make: *** [Makefile.in] Error 1

???

Thanks,

Dave

what are the contents of /usr/share/libtool/config?

on my system I get this:
ls -lh /usr/share/libtool/config
insgesamt 512K
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3,7K  6. Okt 06:55 compile
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   33  6. Okt 06:55 config.guess -> 
/usr/share/gnuconfig/config.guess
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   31  6. Okt 06:55 config.sub -> 
/usr/share/gnuconfig/config.sub
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  18K  6. Okt 06:55 depcomp
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  14K  6. Okt 06:55 install-sh

Got it, it was just the symlinks.  When I made them the first time they
ended up in the wrong directory.  It's fixed now and works.
