Description Daniel Macks 2010-11-17 23:29:51 UTC
Building pkg-config-0.25 on OS X 10.6:

checking whether to list both direct and indirect dependencies... ./configure: line 11170: ./libtool: No such file or directory
no

The configure.in segment is:

    deplibs_check_method=`(./libtool --config; echo eval echo '\"$deplibs_check_method\"') | sh`

One of the changes between libtool1 and libtool2 is that libtool2's autoconf fragments default to not generating the "libtool" script until the very end of ./configure (via AC_OUTPUT). If configure wants to use that generated file earlier, it must explicitly call the LT_OUTPUT macro to make it happen.

This has been fixed in git, so closing
