Bug 21680 – libmpeg2--0.31 fails to build (libtool error?)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Grant Goodyear (RETIRED) 2003-05-25 15:13:19 UTC]

On an x86 system where "emerge system" was built w/ "~x86" set, I
get the following error while compiling libmpeg2 (interestingly, I
don't get this error when building on a stable system):

Making all in doc
make[1]: Entering directory

Here's the associated ../libmpeg2/libmpeg2.la:

# libmpeg2.la - a libtool library file

CC'ing azarah, in case it's a toolchain problem.

[Comment 2 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2003-05-26 15:59:31 UTC]

I cant think it, but see if updating to libtool-1.4.3 fixes it for you.

[Comment 3 Grant Goodyear (RETIRED) 2003-05-27 13:58:08 UTC]

Looks like I'm using libtool-1.4.3-r1.

Looks like this bug is the same as 19221.  Closing here.
