AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_CC_C_O assumes cwd needn't be writable

I received the following bug report:

	http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89887

which describes how icc apparently hits the following problem described
in the source of the above macro:

   # According to Tom Tromey, Ian Lance Taylor reported there are C compilers
   # that will create temporary files in the current directory regardless of
   # the output directory.  Thus, making CWD read-only will cause this test
   # to fail, enabling locking or at least warning the user not to do parallel
   # builds.
   chmod -w .

libtool 1.5 on Solaris 9 with two gcc

Hi,

I'm running libtool 1.5 on Solaris 9.  I'm compiling
with and linking through gcc 3.2.1 in the location
/opt/GCC/bin.  There is also gcc 3.2 in /usr/local/bin.
The problem I'm having with libtool 1.5 that I didn't
have with libtool 1.4.3 is that now libtool seems to be
trying to link with that same libraries in both /usr/local
and /opt/GCC

Here's from the last few lines of output:

/bin/bash ../libtool --mode=link g++  -g -O2 -fpermissive   -o LdmNexrad2NetCDF  LdmNexrad2NetCDF.o

error running libtool 1.5 on HP-UX 11.0

For your info, I had attached the output that "make check" generated.   What
can I do resolve this? <<makecheck.list>>

Chuck,

This really looks like the compiler, can you build a shared lib without
Libtool?

lt_dlerror() returns NULL?

Hi,

It seems to me that either the documentation is wrong, or the function
is.  I don't see any way that 'lt_dlerror()' can return NULL.

  - Function: const char * lt_dlerror (void)
      Return a human readable string describing the most recent error
      that occurred from any of libltdl's functions.  Return `NULL' if
      no errors have occurred since initialization or since it was last
      called.

    const char *
    lt_dlerror ()
    {
      const char *error;

      LT_DLMUTEX_GETERROR (error);
      LT_DLMUTEX_SETERROR (0);

      return error ? error : LT_DLSTRERROR (UNKNOWN);
    }

AIX, -Wl,-brtl and DESTDIR

Hi,

I'm trying to build glib-2.2.1 on AIX 5L. To build the modules, I'm using the -Wl,-brtl option (as LDFLAGS),
but when I'm trying to install glib in a different location (with the DESTDIR option), libtool fails to
relink the librairies...

Here the last messages from make

/bin/sh ../libtool  --mode=install /opt/bin/install -c libgobject-2.0.la /tmp/install/opt/lib/libgobject-2.0.la
libtool: install: warning: relinking `libgobject-2.0.la'

As you can see, libtool has correctly detected the DESTDIR (/tmp/install) but tries to build
libgobject-2.0.so.0.200.1 from /opt/lib/libglib-2.0.so which doesn't exist because it hasn't been installed...

Libtool and staged installs (-L$install-libdir before -L$staged-install-libdir)

Hello,

I'm using a fairly recent CVS snapshot of libtool (April 25, 2003),
along with a CVS snapshot of autoconf from the same day, and Automake
1.7.4.

Automake allows "staged installs".  A description of how to do "staged
installs" could be as follows (taking my Emdros software package as an
example):

-- example description begins --
The following assumes that you want to install in /opt/Emdros and build
the package in /var/tmp/Emdros before installing.

1. ./configure --prefix=/opt/EmdrosPQ
2. make
3. mkdir /tmp/EmdrosPQ
4. make DESTDIR=/tmp/EmdrosPQ install
5. build package in /tmp/EmdrosPQ for installation in /opt/EmdrosPQ
-- example description ends --

When running

$ make DESTDIR=/tmp/EmdrosPQ install

libtool relinks the shared libraries.  Below I have reproduced four
lines of the output from this command, with most spaces converted to
newlines + indentation.  The lines are numbered.

1. /bin/bash ../libtool --mode=install .././install-sh -c  libmql.la

3 errors found running make check (libtool-1.5)
