Hi all, I've a grave problem : when I build my Debian package the libtool install mode was not called. In the resulting package the /usr/bin/freewrl is not the real binary :
/usr/bin/freewrl: error: `/usr/bin/.libs/freewrl' does not exist This script is just a wrapper for freewrl. See the libtool documentation for more information. Any idea ?
