So many standards to choose from. Anyway, the summary: I have libtool-doc and libtool-bin, but no libtool-dev can be found for my Linux Mint installation. Consequently, no libtool.pc gets installed, either via libtool-bin or by "make install" with the source code. (I did a full make and install into /usr/local.) $ sudo apt install libtool-dev Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package libtool-dev The problem is not (currently) the lack of the libtool tool. Rather, it is the reliance on distributions using pkg-config: $ find /usr/lib*/pkgconfig /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/ -name 'libtool*' $ apt list libtool'*' 2>/dev/null | sed 's/^//' Listing... libtool/bionic,bionic,now 2.4.6-2 all [installed] libtool-bin/bionic,now 2.4.6-2 amd64 [installed] libtool-doc/bionic,bionic 2.4.6-2 all libtoolkit-perl/bionic,bionic 0.0.2-2 all libtools-analyzer-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.6.9-1 all libtools-analyzer-jvm-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.7.1-3 all libtools-cli-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.3.5-2 all libtools-logging-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.2.3-6 all libtools-macro-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.1.5-2 all libtools-namespace-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.2.11-1 all libtools-nrepl-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.2.12-1 all libtools-reader-clojure/bionic,bionic 1.0.0-1 all libtools-trace-clojure/bionic,bionic 0.7.9-1 all In other words, a libtool "make install" needs to install "libtool.pc". ___ https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool

The Debian/Ubuntu packages are called -dev. To search for a particular binary, either install command-not-found, and you'll get a suggestion for the missing package, or use packages.ubuntu.com to search. Both will give you the hint to the libtool-bin package. Matthias ___ https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool

Hi Bruce, Bruce Korb wrote: $ ./configure . checking for libltdl... no configure: error: GNU libltdl (Libtool) not found, see README. This error is for "libtool dynamic loader library" ltdl. Perhaps you system distribute separate libtool and libltdl packages. $ type libtool bash: type: libtool: not found libtool is generated script. Some vendors decided do not distribute script generated (build) by libtool package. Usually there is no such need. [SNIP] $ type libtool bash: type: libtool: not found After successful configuration of you project 'libtool" script(s) will be generated in build tree.

Re: Why is Guile unable to find libtool?
How? I'm sure it is somewhere under /usr but not /usr/local, but now it _is_ under /usr/local 'cuz I did a source install. I'd rather dump that one so I'm not on the hook to update it all the time.
