looks like you were correct about a straggler from other installs ... whereas my 'usual'
cd /usr/local rm -rf include/ltdl.h lib/libltdl* share/libtool share/aclocal-1.10/ltdl.m4 lib/libdl* (rebuild libtool from src) was not sufficiently 'cleansing', a cd /usr/local rm -rf include/ltdl.h lib/libltdl* share/libtool share/aclocal-1.10/ltdl.m4 lib/libdl* rm -rf share/aclocal* rm -rf share/automake* rm -rf share/autoconf* (rebuild libtool from src) certainly was. downstream packages now glibtoolize & build, using 1.5.27a, with no errors. i'm guessing the nomially required rm-ing is somewhere inbetween the two actions; likely at least (just?) the aforementioned 'ltoptions.m4'? but, i'm up-n-running again. thanks. _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
