libtool_osx
Hi! I'm new to the terminal and trying to install jpeg-6b on my ibook running osx.3.9 and I tried the ./configure -enable-shared and got the following. seth-tylers-Computer:~/Desktop/jpeg-6b.1 sethtyler$ ./configure -enable-shared checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for function prototypes... yes checking for stddef.h... yes checking for stdlib.h... yes checking for string.h... yes checking for size_t... yes checking for type unsigned char... yes checking for type unsigned short... yes checking for type void... yes checking for working const... yes checking for inline... __inline__ checking for broken incomplete types... ok checking for short external names... ok checking to see if char is signed... yes checking to see if right shift is signed... yes checking to see if fopen accepts b spec... yes checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking for ranlib... ranlib checking host system type... ltconfig: cannot guess host type; you must specify one Try `ltconfig --help' for more information. checking libjpeg version number... 62 creating ./config.status creating Makefile creating jconfig.h jconfig.h is unchanged seth-tylers-Computer:~/Desktop/jpeg-6b.1 sethtyler$ make ./libtool --mode=compile gcc -O2 -I. -c ./jcapimin.c make: ./libtool: Command not found make: *** [jcapimin.lo] Error 127 seth-tylers-Computer:~/Desktop/jpeg-6b.1 sethtyler$ make test ./libtool --mode=compile gcc -O2 -I. -c ./cjpeg.c make: ./libtool: Command not found make: *** [cjpeg.lo] Error 127 seth-tylers-Computer:~/Desktop/jpeg-6b.1 sethtyler$ I hope this helps with future bug fixes!

Hi Seth, The libtool that is included in the jpeg-6b package is really really old. If you want to build it shared, why not look at the patches that others use to build jpeg on OS X. http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/browser/trunk/dports/graphics/jpeg/files or the http://www.finkproject.org patches (they are probably very similar). The latest stable GNU libtool is 1.5.22, but they way that it works means that you will often see older/different/patched versions appearing in packages that you want to build. This particular bug at least is fixed in current libtool :-) Thanks for the report, Peter ___ Bug-libtool mailing list Bug-libtool@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-libtool
