Follow-up Comment #1, patch #9999 (group libtool): FWIW, the patch was locally applied to INN in 2020, and there hasn't been any build problem since then. Building INN with libtool otherwise failed with unresolved circular dependencies, even with the use of *--preserve-dup-deps*.
https://github.com/InterNetNews/inn/commit/e715e957fe7db5acc9ec1beaa9abb2ba120c287b#diff-6858ef1035c11e53d6a00ef454d86e2eab93aae2fc7f83f201069946e916c643 I believe it would be useful to fix it upstream too. There even was a comment in _ltmain.sh_ noting that the current code is broken and should be fixed, along with the fix in a commented line: # FIXME: Pedantically, this is the right thing to do, so # that some nasty dependency loop isn't accidentally # broken: #new_libs="$deplib $new_libs" The patch basically uses the right expected logic for *--preserve-dup-deps*. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?9999> _______________________________________________ Message posté via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
