A dependent library (of the library or program being installed) has not been installed yet. This occurs when using -dry-run or installing multiple libraries in the wrong order. In the latter case, it poses a potential problem since the first to-be-installed library might be relinked against the old installed dependent library (if an old installation was present). > BTW - This isn't about libtool, but one odd thing that happens once in a > while is "make distcheck" will sometimes abort and leave a bunch of > read-only files so that subsequent "make distcheck" runs fail. Do other > people experience the same thing? As Bob already noted, installing multiple libraries in the correct order is an Automake/Libtool problem not yet adressed.
