Hello,

I added the --ltdl flag and it works now. Thank you very much. I have few questions:

- autoreconf: I would like to know what to use it for. Usually, I just do one bootstrap when I check out the code from cvs and then automake does everything correctly when I modified a Makefile.am or the configure.ac. All the correct commands are called by just using make. The only problem is when I add a folder, I have to rerun bootstrap. So, when I add a folder, instead of doing bootstrap maybe I should do autoreconf. Am I wrong ?

- one instance of libtool.m4: I have to say that I don't really understand what you are talking about. I am not familiar with m4 macros. So, I don't really understand the aim of doing the modifications you propose.

- ltdl: I guess I can remove libltdl files from cvs now it is generated every time.

Thank you very much again,

Thomas

Actually, if you
don't need to support older Autoconf versions, it should use
`autoreconf' instead of calling the autotools individually.
If you want only one instance of the libtool.m4 macros and can allow use
of latest autotools only, you should create a m4 directory, add
ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4
to toplevel Makefile.am, put all .m4 files there (autoreconf calls the autotools with the right options then)
[and for a future libtoolize version
AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])
to toplevel configure.ac].


Actually, you can do even better than that when using libltdl.  To avoid
duplication of configaux files and m4 macros between libltdl and your parent
project then in $top_srcdir/Makefile.am:

ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I libltdl/m4

in $top_srcdir/configure.ac:

AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([libltdl/config])
AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([libltdl/m4])



Sure. But then you need to modify libltdl/Makefile.am and libltdl/configure.ac as well. This interferes with libtoolize --ltdl overwriting these changes.

Note the bug reporter uses 1.5.x of Libtool.

Regards,
Ralf
