You are the >maintainer, and you introduced that regression by resurrecting .la >files. libtool is designed to use .la files. By installing the .la files, FreeBSD is complying with libtool design decisions. This raises the following question: Does Linux show the same dependency behaviour as FreeBSD? If Linux and FreeBSD both demonstrate the same behaviour then the problem is inherent in libtool: Any fix should occur upstream. If the FreeBSD behaviour is felt to be significantly worse than Linux then the next step is to identify what the configuration differences are. In the libldtl case, it was that the libtool developer was not told that FreeBSD's dynamic loader correctly handled .so's depending on other .so's and he therefore noted it as "unknown" which turns into "assume it doesn't". This caused gnucash to start slowly. The fix was quite simple. It is quite likely that the underlying problem here (if there is one) can also be resolved in a far less intrusive way. --=20 Peter Jeremy --SUOF0GtieIMvvwua Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFF8pJD/opHv/APuIcRAhkNAKC8cwlYRQq6JZVpwwkaRVX2bFvqWACgnQ73 ZBEr+szzcVlvKzHWJSiAlEU= =peQ/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --SUOF0GtieIMvvwua--
