Hi. Since libtool latest release 3 years ago, some important problems have been patched. In particular, "-fuse-ld=…" is now propagated to the driver when linking.
For example, it is not possible to build LLVM modules using libtool on Ubuntu LTS using only released packages. "llvm-config --cxxflags" outputs "… -fuse-ld=gold -Wl,--no-keep-files-mapped …", and only the linker option "--no-keep-files-mapped" is passed to the driver (g++/clang++) while "-fuse-gold=ld" is dropped, causing GNU ld to halt with an error because "--no-keep-files-mapped" is a gold-only option. This is a known problem which has been fixed in libtool repository in Feb. 2016 (f9970d99293faf908fdc153a653fa5781095fb7a), but no libtool release seems to have taken place since then. Would it be possible to cut a formal release? Sam _______________________________________________ https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
