I was able to build log4cpp at last. I had to hack the libtool utility. 1) First I renamed the original libtool in /usr/bin 2) redoing the "make" in the main directory does create another libtool, and the compilation goes until the error on the library 3) at this point I hacked the libtool, changing *all* occurrences of /usr/lib/ and /lib/ with a dummy name, like /usr/lib9000 and /lib9000 4) please note that also path like "/usr/lib9/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../" need to be changed, cause they point to /usr/lib/ anyway!!! Of course paths like: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../x86_64-redhat-linux/lib/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/ are ok. 5) re-run make, and now the compiler does not complain any more.
