Please, let us have a look, too: at your configure line, at all libtool --mode=link lines and their output. The issue of dependent DLLs having to exist in $PATH is exactly this bug: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool-patches/2006-09/msg00010.html > Either -dlpreopen should make m4.exe link against the static version > of those libraries (so it does not depend on the convenience .dll > existing in PATH), That is what -dlpreopen is documented to do. -dlopen should use the static versions only when shared libs are not available, e.g., due to --disable-shared or some other reason. Cheers, and thanks for the report, Ralf _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
