Hello, Do you know when this new platform is scheduled to be officially supported by libtool? Do you need an official tarball or just a custom one?
We tend to be careful with what version of libtool we use. The current release scheme would prevent any libtool version bump before v1.9, which won't happen before next spring. But 2.4.2.418 may be different from an actual version bump. I am CCing the devel list in case somebody has an opinion (you will need to be subscribed to post there, so keep me in To:). thanks Brice Le 25/11/2013 09:05, Ludovic Courtès a écrit : > Hi, > > s...@linux.vnet.ibm.com skribis: > >> I am working on a new architecture - ppc64le (powerpc 64-bit Little >> Endian) and I was building hwloc.
