Hallo Alex,
I'm using libtool 1.4.2 on a redhat 8.0 machine and when do a make
install in my project libtool relinks all my libs and binaries.
How can I disable this? I never run my binaries from the build area,
only from the installed prefix.
Linking a large C++ binary takes a long time, so I'd like to avoid doing
it twice
I use libtool on Cygwin. Usually no relinking is needed on
Cygwin/Windows. So I open and edit every .la file in question and
remove the relink command at the bottom before I run `make install`.
AFAIK, relinking is only done (on any system) to fix up library run paths?
If so, relinking is definitely never required on Windows, because *no* path
information is recorded in executables.
Is there any any combination of libtool configuration variables that will
tell it never relink? Last time I looked, I couldn't find such a setting,
so I resorted to disabling that section of code in ltmain.sh with a case
statement. I've been meaning to have a closer look and maybe send in a
patch, but I haven't got around to it yet.
Max.
