[Mlterm-dev-ja] Fwd: Bug#181329: mlterm_2.6.3.cvs20030216-1(mipsel/unstable): configure built with broken libtool.m4

[Tomohiro K. <ku...@de...>]

久保田です。

またまた、Debian のバグ報告の転送です。

libtool 関係のバージョンをあげてくれ、とのことだそうです。
mips/mipsel アーキテクチャでのコンパイルを可能にするために、
バージョンを 1.4.2-7 以上にしろとのこと。「-7」の部分は Debian
パッケージ固有のバージョン番号なので、一般的には 1.4.3 以上に
すればいいと思います。(最新版は 1.4.3 のようです)。

こっちでも試してみますが、libtool の使い方があまりよくわかって
いないので、でたらめな変更を加えてしまう恐れがあります。
ですので、もしよろしければ、荒木さんのほうでやっていただけると
うれしいです。
