Message-ID: <20020514151521.E11563-100000@cypress.adhesivemedia.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all - I have some questions regarding any issues in upgrading libtool from 1.3.4 to 1.4.x. Here's my story: I want to play around with writing PHP modules. This requires libtool 1.4.x. A quick check of the ports gives me just devel/libtool whose makefile says: # This port has not been upgraded to 1.4 because it is used by about 30% of # the ports collection, and more testing is needed. If someone can supply a # working patch then it will be upgraded. Searching through gnats revealed to submissions regarding this, but since they haven't been incorporated I'm a little curious as to why. So.. my question is what's going to happy to me if I install the lastest version of libtool? Am I going to find that none (or rather 70%) of the ports will build correctly? Or should I install libtool-1.4.2 in a different location and then modify the necessary places in PHP to look for that? Or??? Thanks all! -philip To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
