I downloaded the entire set of packages using cygwin - setup.exe yesterday
and installed them automagically. After messing around for a while, I
discovered that Cygwin 1.3.1-1 has an empty file for libtool.
I tried downloading libtool-1.4.tar.gz from the Files menu at
http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/, but it has the same empty file for
libtool as does Cygwin 1.3.1-1.
I then downloaded libtool-1.3.5.tar.gz from the Files menu at
http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/ and expanded it. Using the Cygwin
shell, I cd'd to the libtool-1.3.5 directory and typed:
./ltconfig ltmain.sh
This created libtool. There is no file called libtoolize. There is a file
called libtoolize.in, however, and it is a script.
When I try to run libtoolize.in, I get:
$ ./libtoolize.in
cd: can't cd to @pkgdatadir@
libtoolize: cannot list files in `@pkgdatadir@'
I'm completely stuck!
I'm new to Cygwin. The reason I'm messing around with libtool is so that I
can build the Apache Portable Runtime (http://apr.apache.org) using the
tarballs at http://apr.apache.org/from-cvs/. I'm in way over my head when
stuff breaks like this! I'm having difficulty understanding the finer
points of Cygwin and then libtool, and getting them to work, so I can again
s-t-r-e-t-c-h myself into building Apache connectors.
When I try to run Apache's buildconf script, it says:
$ ./buildconf
buildconf: checking installation...
buildconf: autoconf version 2.13 (ok)
buildconf: libtool version 1.3.5 (ok)
libtoolize not found in path
Help! Please reply directly to my email address, I don't subscribe to this
