The difference is that it must be done after each package is installed, making it somewhat error prone. Once another libtool based package uses a previous one, the linker is forever dependent on it and the dependency chain just gets longer and longer. Making it more difficult to correct. --DJ -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
