Re: [toolbox-l] glib and gnome-libs problems

[<mcn...@au...>]

Hi David,

We have patched "libtool" to support run-time-linking on AIX.
This is quite different from the linking AIX normally does.

You may be able to take the libtool files from one of our SRPMS
and make it work for you (ltconfig and ltmain.sh).

The key is to set LDFLAGS before you do ./configure and build libtool.
export LDFLAGS=-Wl,-brtl
or
setenv LDFLAGS -Wl,-brtl
will configure libtool to build using run-time-linking.
