Re: Building a Libtool 2 package with libltdl from 1.5
Something that may be of interest: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212723 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

I don't think there was ever any intention for libtool 2.2.X to work with libltdl from libtool 1.5.X. If libltdl is not bundled with the package, then it should be possible to use an already installed libltdl from libtool 1.5.X. I am suspicious that the way libtool 2.2.X bundles libltdl may sometimes fail if a libltdl from 1.5.X is already installed and the user does not request to use the bundled libltdl.

It does actually work because then libltdl is just a library like any other library.
