No, sorry this is incorrect. libtool only tries to use 'file' if it's using the old _broken_ method of handling shared libraries. Please fix the package's configure script instead. i.e. | # This must be Linux ELF. | linux-gnu*) | case $host_cpu in | alpha* | hppa* | i*86 | mips | mipsel | powerpc* | sparc* | ia64* | s390* | x86_64*) | lt_cv_deplibs_check_method=pass_all ;; | *) | # glibc up to 2.1.1 does not perform some relocations on ARM | lt_cv_deplibs_check_method='file_magic ELF [0-9][0-9]*-bit [LM]SB (shared object|dynamic lib )' ;; | esac | lt_cv_file_magic_test_file=`echo /lib/libc.so* /lib/libc-*.so` | ;; Should be something like this instead: | # This must be Linux ELF. | linux-gnu*) | lt_cv_deplibs_check_method=pass_all ;; | lt_cv_file_magic_test_file=`echo /lib/libc.so* /lib/libc-*.so` | ;; Relibtoolizing and regenerating configure with a recent libtool from Debian should be enough to do this for you. -- James -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
