It's the libtool15 port on FreeBSD. Note that it does work okay with libtool 1.5.10 on Solaris. (You can test it with your www.apache.org login.) Digging a bit, I think it's due to the following patch that FreeBSD applies: <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/devel/libtool15/files/patch-ltmain.sh> The last hunk says "Do not install the useless pseudo-library". Feel free to take it up with the libtool15 FreeBSD port folks, if you like. I hate libtool enough that I can't convince myself to blame them. =) -- justin % /usr/local/bin/bash /home/jerenkrantz/work/build/apr/libtool --dry-run \ --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c -m 755 libapr-1.la \ /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib /usr/bin/install -c -m 755 .libs/libapr-1.so.1 /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib/libapr-1.so.1 (cd /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib && rm -f libapr-1.so && ln -s libapr-1.so.1 libapr-1.so) (cd /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib && rm -f libapr-1.so && ln -s libapr-1.so.1 libapr-1.so) /usr/bin/install -c -m 755 .libs/libapr-1.a /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib/libapr-1.a ranlib /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib/libapr-1.a chmod 644 /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib/libapr-1.a ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Libraries have been installed in: /home/jerenkrantz/pkg/apr-trunk/lib ...snip, snip, snip...
