Re: [Hamlib-developer] Shared library support broken?

Hi Ken,

This is great news for the Ten-Tec Pegasus. On top of that, we have the
full documentation. Some issues still need to be addressed, like the
transmit watchdog (some kind of SIGALARM and sighandler?), but nothing
that can't be worked out!

yep, config.guess and config.sub are no more under cvs. So your system
(ie. autotools-dev package or automake) must have some kind of recent ones.
you can check with "./config.guess --version" and "./config.sub --version".
Date of this year should be okay.

Anyway, you've raised an good point. I've updated README.developer and 
README.betatester to be more explicit about versions.

In the mean time, I've upgraded libtool to 1.4.3, which fixes couple of
bugs, but not the ones you were expecting.

oops, sorry, I did some cleanup without doing a full check afterwards.
Anyway, that gave me the opportunity to improve a little bit the
autogen.sh script. Modify to your own need!

Thanks for the report and fixes.
