You should find that the courier main server source tree you are building
from either contains a copy of the libltdl sources already, or else has a
bootstrap (or autogen.sh) script that copies the libltdl sources into the
tree using the libtoolize script installed along with the other libltdl
files you just installed separately.
If the process isn't working properly, the maintainers of courier main
server are much better placed to help you find the right combination of
build commands, or else fix bugs in their libltdl integration.
Let's cut out the middle-man here. courier-authlib includes a copy of ltdl,
but there's nothing particularly strange about it. There's an LTDL_INIT in
configure.ac, and a fairly boring collection of _LTLIBRARIES in Makefile.am.
That's it.
I have no idea what's going wrong here. This is plain vanilla stuff. My
suspicion is that the configure stuff is there's some confusion between the
bundled and a system-installed copy of libtool.
I would suggest using --with-included-ltdl with configure, to force libtool
use the bundled copy of libtool.
