I updated Libtool to 1.4.2 according to the docs that came with the tarball (./configure make make test make install) and whenever I try to build Showeq now I'm given this error:
How do I diagnose the cause problem and resolve it?Code:./ltconfig: ./ltconfig: No such file or directory
configure: error: libtool configure failed
What distro and version of linux are you using?
# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.4.2-2 ([email protected]) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-79)) #1 Sun Apr 8 19:37:14 EDT 2001
That is very odd.
Do you have both
libtool-libs-1.4-8
libtool-1.4-8
installed?
What command did you use to install libtool? (what flags to rpm)
Now, I'm no programmer specifically, so I don't know if this file is created by configure, or if it is one that should be on your system, but I do know a bit about unix...Quote:
./ltconfig: ./ltconfig: No such file or directory
configure: error: libtool configure failed
To me it looks like it is looking for ltconfig inside the directory that you are running the configure script. Is it supposed to find the ltconfig in your path? Or is ltconfig created by the configure script?
Where is ltconfig located on your hard drive? Looks to me that configure is trying to use one that isn't where it should be?

I'm pretty sure its generated by `make -f Makefile.dist`Quote:

Yendor, I did not use the RPMS, but rather the tarball.
Here is how I installed it:
Did I goof up by not using the RPMs?Code:gzip -d libtool-1.4.2.tar.gz
tar xvf libtool-1.4.2.tar
cd libtool-1.4.2
./configure
make
make test
make install
I really can't say.
libtool
automake
autoconf
Are all closely related. So its possible that the tarball installation of libtool placed files in different locations than the (RPM?) installed versions of autoconf and automake might be looking for them.
I'm not sure why you need to update them, I seem to recall I was able to run make -f Makefile.dist and configure using the tools standard with RH 6.2, so I would think the versions with RH 7.1 would work. I could be wrong quite easily.
So one thing to do is remove your tarball installed libtool and reinstall the RH 7.1 versions.... or remove your RH 7.1 versions of all those tools and install latest versions from tarballs. Not sure what order, would guess libtool then automake then autoconf.
Hope that helps some.
Had to update for PHP 4.1.1. :) How do I remove the package?Quote:

rpm -e "package name"
to get a list of packages installed:
rpm -qa
to find the packages you are interested in regarding this:
rpm -qa | grep libtool
rpm -qa | grep automake
rpm -qa | grep autoconf
remove the resultant packages. reinstall from tarballs. and maybe it will work. alternately you should be able to find rpms of all those packages at the levels you need. but whichever. hopefully you have enough info now to find a solution.
