Of couse, if you forget about C++, then this change is probably ok, since all dependencies would be reflected in the binary library files. This is certainly not the case for C++.
I belive that the Libtool manual says unambiguously that this is supposed to work: "In any event, libtool provides a simple mechanism for you to declare inter-library dependencies: for every library libname that your own library depends on, simply add a corresponding -lname option to the link line when you create your library." http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/libtool.html #Inter_002dlibrary-dependencies -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1002565 Title: Libtool fails to handle library interdependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtool/+bug/1002565/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
