Hi People,
I'm the author of libsndfile ( http://www.zip.com.au/~erikd/libsndfile/ )
a cross platform library for reading and writing audio files.
The vast majority of my development work is done on Debian Linux but I
have a large number of users on other Unixen, Win32 and MacOS (OS 9 and
OSX). Until recently I had few if any reports of problems.
The problems began when I upgraded my Debian machine from Potato to Woody.
This upgrade changed the version of autoconf/automake/libtool which I had
been using to generate the source tarballs I had been distributing. The
configure/libtool scripts in the tarball now fail to build on OSX.
Since I have recently bought myself an iBook which is running OS 9, OSX
and Linux I now have an opportunity to get to the bottom of this. However
I would not like to repeat the work of others stomping the same ground
so I ask
1) Is anybody else having this problem?
2) Is anybody working on it?
3) Where are they up to?
4) How close is a solution?
5) Are people pushing their solutions back to the autoconf/automake/
libtool etc maintainers?
I have tried using the Fink autoconf/automake/libtool set and reconfiguring
on OSX but this still does fix the problems on my library.
Cheers,
Erik
