[Gdal-dev] error because of libtool?

[Vincent Schut]

Hi dev's,

just tried to compile a sprankling new gdal, fresh from cvs (of course backed up my old source tree...) and ./configured as usual. So I guess it should use libtool. Indeed building was quite slow :-)
When arriving at the final build phase however, I get the following error:

<snip>

Thought I'd just file this testing result here in the mailing list for you to crunch on :)

Cheers,
