The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of GNU Libtool 1.5.20. GNU Libtool hides the complexity of using shared libraries behind a consistent, portable interface. GNU Libtool ships with GNU libltdl, which hides the comlexity of loading dynamic runtime libraries (modules) behind a consistent, portable interface.
This release fixes a few regressions in 1.5.20, plus a small list of other bugs. New in 1.5.20: 2005-08-31 * Fix long-standing Solaris CC limitation failing with -no-undefined. * Fix yet another regression with ownership of libltdl data files. * Work around breakage on Tru64 due to shell bugs. * Fix regression with spurious object name conflicts against installed static libraries which were erronously treated as convenience libraries. * Fix building of packages on cygwin managed mounts. libtool-1.5.20 is available now from ftp.gnu.org, along with diffs and xdeltas against libtool-1.5.18 that are also available from ftp.gnu.org.

Alternatively, you can fetch the unbootstrapped sourcecode from anonymous cvs by using the following commands (just hit return when you are prompted for the password): $ export CVS_RSH=ssh $ cvs -z3 -d :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/libtool \ co -r release-1-5-20 libtool You will then need to have the latest release versions of Automake (1.9.6) and Autoconf (2.59) installed to bootstrap the checked out sources yourself. Please report bugs to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>, along with the verbose output of any failed test groups, and the output from `./libtool --help'. _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
