especially my comment #8. For non-Gentoo users: eautoreconf (if I were to simplify it) is something like this: - first call aclocal (with additional -I options, if needed) - then check for libtool use and call 'libtoolize -c -f -i', if required (of course, -i is just for libtool 2) - if libtoolize was called, call aclocal again - call autoconf (and autoheader, if needed) - finally, call 'automake -c -f' AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR conflict (comment #15) is a well known libtool 2 change. So, guile does build correctly with libtool 2 with only a trivial change (that AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR thing). _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
