Hi,
I've spoken about this in the past but it looks like I should mention it
again. I do extensive cross compiling of the entire Linux software stack
using OpenEmbedded and Poky (I maintain the latter). We have cross
compiling working with libtool with a variety of workarounds. This
mainly consist
Hi,
I work on OpenEmbedded/Poky and we're been experimenting with the recent
libtool sysroot support. To say I'm pleased to have this is an
understatement! We're having a few problems around incorrect RPATHs
being encoded into libraries however.
Firstly, for the first time ever for us, it appears
Hi Ralf,
Thanks for the reply.

Hi,
It was great to see a libtool release, thanks for that!
I upgraded Yocto Project to it in time for our LTS release:
https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=ff7b41573842a403c81f58bee41fc8163a9d7754
so far things seem reasonable, we've had a few minor issues but they're not
really libtoo

Hi,
I've had reports of Poky breaking with libtool 2.2.2 and have isolated
this to people using dash as their /bin/sh provider (Poky runs the
configure script with /bin/sh). When used in this combination, the
global_symbol_pipe expression becomes corrupted in the generated libtool
file amongst oth
Hi,
I've noticed another problem with two packages in poky, prelink and
libvorbis. Both packages have areas where LDFLAGS="-all-static" is used.
The problem comes about since Poky sets CC to "ccache gcc", then libtool
puts the -static flag between ccache and gcc.
To reproduce:
wget http://www.v

Hi,
As previously mentioned, I've been stress testing libtool 2.2.2 with
Poky a bit.
I've found one issue when I tested the darwin builds, specifically that
it tried to use "otool" and "otool64" and not the versions with the host
prefix which my setup has. I fixed this with the patch below which

Just for reference, pkg-config should not break cross-compilation after
the addition of sysroot support to it. I keep meaning to look into
sysroot support for libtool too, I just haven't had the time yet :(.

way to solve this?
Linux does seem to have good dynamic linker support and its a shame
libtool effectively drags it down to a lower common denominator of other
platforms with worse support.
