A make of CVS HEAD gst-plugins fails with the error message: gcc "{ global:" > .libs/libgstaudio.ver gcc: { global:: No such file or directory After running ./configure, the errors can be eliminated by doing the following (copied from http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135725): Edit the builddir's libtool script and find the line "archive_expsym_cmds=`echo $archive_expsym_cmds | perl -pe 's/^\S+\s+//'`", comment it out and the next line. Rerun make and it works. This bug appears to affect gtk+ also.
This bug exists in libtool 1.4.3-r3 and 1.5.2-r3, but not in 1.4.1-r10. This bug is similar to bug#42695. However, please don't mark it as a dupe without copying the workaround to there.

Ok, it was libtool-1.4.2-fix-linkage-of-cxx-code-with-gcc.patch that broke things. I'll add a -r4 that fixes it. Please reopen if still an issue.
I can't reopen this bug, but I'm still seeing the offending lines in libtool and error message when compiling with libtool-1.5.2-r4.
reopening for Michael Terry
You commented out 'epatch ${FILESDIR}/1.4.3/${PN}-1.4.2-archive-shared.patch', which wasn't causing this problem. You should have commented 'epatch ${FILESDIR}/1.4.3/${PN}-1.4.2-fix-linkage-of-cxx-code-with-gcc.patch' Could you also add a libtool-1.4.3-r4 to fix the same bug for stable users?
Crap. Should be fixed now, thanks.
