Hello,

Seems libtool has turned me into a tool.

I went and installed GNU's libtool on my system not realizing that
Apple libtool != GNU libtool.

As you might imagine this has left my build enviornment in a very
inconsistent state.

My question is, where can I quickly obtain either the sources (for
rebuild) or the PPC binaries for the libtool that's included in Darwin
8.6.0

If you are using darwinbuild, you can build cctools and recover it.

Or, you could reinstall XCode and get it back (but I never liked this approach).

Personally I prefer to build cctools (to get ar/as/file/ld/libtool), which you can modify to enable extra features that apple has disabled.

Also, helps to add:
LIBTOOLIZE=glibtoolize

[ FURTHER DOWN CHANGE TO READ ]

export PATH LIBTOOLIZE

to your /etc/profile file.

While this helps with some tasks like autoreconf etc..., I have a much more elaborate/complicated profile file which sets additional and specific environment variables that aids building and you may want to look into this further.

As well, if you're attempting to build anything that uses the X11.root.tar.gz file which is missing, I've managed to generate this root file along with a dual architecture (x86/ppc) darwinbuild binary in an installer package that makes installation easier.

The only file I was unable to locate and build in a dual architecture structure was the source for the libXplugin library since a search at darwinsource.opendarwin.org yielded no results I kinda left it for now figuring it would pop up eventually.



Thanks
