Hi !

To recompile, bump the pkgrel and add:
find $startdir/pkg -name '*.la' -exec rm {} \;
at end of PKGBUILD to remove libtool files. This should work unless they
need to be patch for gcc4.
The line "find $startdir/pkg -name '*.la' -exec rm {} \;" could not be executed directly from makepkg ?

What i mean is that changing all the PKGBUILDs just to add this line at the end is so much work. And since we dont want more libtool crap, i see that it a good idea to makepkg do it for us.

The problem is that some things really do need libtool files, like KDE.
Imagine a patch to makepkg that breaks kde... how popular would that
be? ;)
Oh, riiiight. So this whole thing was WELL worth it then. As if we don't have enough to work around now we have added an extra layer of complexity and vagueness. Is this just to make life more interesting?
