./configure --prefix=/ && make install' fails

Hi Alon,

I could reproduce the problem. Apparently the issue is present at 
least in all latest releases:

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/ntfs-3g.commit/libntfs-3g'
test -z "/lib" || mkdir -p -- "/lib"
if [ "/lib" != "//lib" ]; then \
                /bin/mv -f "///lib"/libntfs-3g.so* "//lib";  \
        fi
/bin/mv: `///lib/libntfs-3g.so' and `//lib/libntfs-3g.so' are the same file
/bin/mv: `///lib/libntfs-3g.so.31' and `//lib/libntfs-3g.so.31' are the same file
/bin/mv: `///lib/libntfs-3g.so.31.0.0' and `//lib/libntfs-3g.so.31.0.0' are the same file
make[3]: *** [install-exec-hook] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/ntfs-3g.commit/libntfs-3g'
make[2]: *** [install-exec-am] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/ntfs-3g.commit/libntfs-3g'
make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/ntfs-3g.commit/libntfs-3g'

The problem is in libntfs-3g/Makefile.am, at the below conditions:

	if [ "$(rootlibdir)" != "$(libdir)" ]

It seems that the three 'if' statements could be also merged and fixed 
once by removing the redundant slashes in the path. What do you think?

Thanks,

Hi Alon,

Thanks for the patch.

Will the build still work with simple libtool? There are quite many 
users still using very old toolchains and sometimes they need to do 
an ./autogen.sh which shouldn't fail.

I'm sorry about it. I've sent you an email explaining it but to a 
different email address. Maybe you didn't get it?

Yes it will.
In order to activate libtool-2 you need to uncomment LT_INIT and
comment the AC_PROG_LIBTOOL.

But everything else is in place.

Re: [PATCH] Prepare to libtool-2

Hello,

This patch will work with libtool-1 and libtool-2, it detects the correct version at runtime.
You need to have m4 directory in source tree, maybe commit m4/.keep as I believe CVS ignores
empty directories.

Some modifications made by autoupdate:
- space removed.
- AM_CONFIG_HEADER->AC_CONFIG_HEADERS

Alon.
