I have the same problem. On old version of Ubuntu our own and other
projects from the web properly compile, link *and* run. The same is true
using all other systems we have tested, openSUSE up to 13.1, different
Red Hats, Fedoras, Angstroem, Debian (RaspberryPi).

But with Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS it doesn't work any more.

When I install the original libtool 2.4.2 from the GNU sources on Ubuntu
14.04.2 LTS everything is fine and back to normal. Just setting
link_all_deplibs to yes didn't help too much. Linking wasn't a problem,
but we had unresolved externals when trying to run binaries, and ldd
didn't show the dependencies as well, allthough libtool linked the
appropriate libs, probably missing some rpath statements (?).

Changing all autotool files of all our projects, or as a maintainer in
the sources from the web is quite some work. And the manual maintenance
of the nested dependencies in other libs or executables is not very
efficient and redundant work.
