I expect that libtool and its automake/autoconf counterpart know the details. I don't think that we could do a lot about this apart from fixing libtool. -- Hannes _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
