I don't have a fix for this yet, but similar to slibtool there is sltdl which could eventually replace libltdl.

https://dev.midipix.org/cross/sltdl

Unfortunately this can't be tested as easily with an environment variable like slibtool.

[Comment 3 orbea 2021-03-23 02:53:54 UTC]

This upstream slibtool issue is relevant.

https://dev.midipix.org/cross/slibtool/issue/2

[Comment 4 orbea 2021-03-24 00:54:31 UTC]

This fails because -dlpreopen is a no-op in slibtool and seems to be really needed here.

Do any other packages fail with this error? The other two I know about, bind and pulseaudio no longer seem to use it upstream.

[Comment 6 Agostino Sarubbo 2024-02-06 16:07:44 UTC]

slibtool_tinderbox has reproduced this issue with version 2.4.7-r1 - Updating summary.

[Comment 7 orbea 2024-03-03 02:42:11 UTC]

This is fixed with slibtool-9999 now, but the libltdl.la libtool archive must be installed so it must be built with clibtool or one of the related symlinks like rclibtool or rdclibtool.

    dev-build/slibtool: add 0.5.36
    
    Many bugs are fixed with this release, it is recommended for slibtool
    users to rebuild their entire system after this release. The addition of
    -export-symbols and -export-symbols-regex will allow exporting only the
    desired public symbols globally in any package that uses them.
