Explanations are attached to #31. Errr.. were attached.. were lost by the site... Okay, I'll try to recall what I wrote. The problem is that convenience libraries are added to both $convenience and $deplibs. That causes the library to be listed twice on the final link command line. That's a problem on platforms with pedantic linkers like Darwin, which complain about duplicate symbols as a result. Note that at the core this actually affects all platforms, not just Darwin. (There may be some that rely on the current errenous behaviour, though. whole_archive_flag_spec=' ' *cough*) Hope this helps, -chrisp ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?func=detailsupport&support_id=100049&group_id=25 _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
