Oops! This is indeed with upstream version. I couldn't use debian's libtool because the *.tar.gz archives generated if I use it weren't working on some systems (although I cannot recall the concrete error, but I think it was related to the problem we discuss here). I'll try to resolve this with upstream libtool people, sorry for the noise! /Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
