This question, sir, speaks volumes. I can't speak for the OpenBSD people of course, but I assume the reason they wrote a libtool replacement was partly the frustration of having to work with the GNU one and having bugs like that rot for _years_ in the GNU bugtracker. Have a go: try to get it fixed upstream. "I maintain this software, which uses libtool to link, and it breaks on OpenBSD because of the following libtool bug." See how it goes. _______________________________________________ SoX-devel mailing list SoX-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sox-devel
