Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libtool
It appears that the link_all_deplibs=no patch hasn't been correctly
updated for libtool 2.2.x.
The binaries in xapian-omega link against libxapian which has a
dependency on libz, but the binaries don't require libz themselves. So
to avoid explicitly linking with libz, xapian-omega's debian/rules runs
autoreconf (which runs libtoolize) to pick up this patch. This works as
expected with libtool 1.5.26-4, but with libtool 2.2.4-0ubuntu3 the link
command run by libtool contains -lz (and so xapian-omega FTBFS since it
doesn't have a build dependency on zlib1g-dev).
The attached patch against ltmain.sh fixes this for me, but I'm not
certain if it is the correct fix, or if it is, if more cases should be
handled. I added echos to trace how deplibs changes through the
execution of the libtool script, and it seems rather complicated.
