libtool.m4 from libtool 1.5.14

Here is a libtool.m4 from libtool 1.5.14, but I understand you may prefer to
download it directly from the libtool website
(http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html)

Unfortunately, our libtool is a modified version.

Can you instead post a patch for the relevant changes against our current HEAD libtool.m4.in?

Patch to the current CVS to support kfreebsd 

Please find a patch as you requested to the current CVS version of kde-common.
It's simply the patch that was applied to the libtool CVS rediffed for the
current KDE CVS. Note that it also include a patch for ltmain.sh, as it seems
it is also necessary.

I have just successfully built a KDE package with this patch, so it is working.

Hi,

Is there a chance to see this patch in the CVS soon? It would ease a lot the GNU/kFreeBSD port.

Thanks,
Aurelien

The patch makes sense to me.

Hi,

It has been a long time since the last message was posted. Is there still a chance to see this patch merged?

Thanks,
Aurelien
