>Description:
When installing the Gnome-core package the dependacy pkglibtool
was required, and installed pkglibtool as pkglibtool, however
gnome-core and other packages it was dependant on looked for
libtool. My quick hack was to create a link from pkglibtool to
libtool. What I wonder is if this problem is due to my possible
use of an old package engine, or if their is a real dependacy
problem, in which case the question is which way should it be?
That is, should pkglibtool be looked for instead of libtool, or
the other way around?
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/pkgsrc/x11/gnome-core; make
>Fix:
I don't think my quick hack mentioned above is a fix.
