The libtool part of the configure script included in libburn is to old, and doesn't have the code to correctly detect the ppc64el. This causes the shared libraries to not be built. This is why a patch is provided in the bug report to regenerate autoconf related files at build time. From the upstream point of view, you might want to release the next version with the autoconf related files regenerated with a relatively recent version of autoconf, automake and libtool. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 4096R/1DDD8C9B [email protected] http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
