Package: libtool
Version: 2.4.6-10
Severity: important
Dear maintainer, I faced a problem trying to build a project,
libtoolized by Buster's libtool. It is also reproducible wit libtool
from Sid. The trouble is that if libfoo.la and libbar.la were built,
where libbar.la depends on libfoo.la, and some binary is linked to
libbar.la, libfoo is not added to the linker command line. If I replace
ltmain.sh and libtool.m4 by the files from the original tarball, I'm
able to build the project successfully.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Get rpm 4.13.1 source tree
git clone [email protected]:rpm-software-management/rpm.git
cd rpm
git checkout rpm-4.13.1-release
2. Run autoreconf
autoreconf -fiv
3. Download latest berkeley-db from
http://download.oracle.com/otn/berkeley-db/db-18.1.32.tar.gz (the bug
doesn't reproduce when building with system db package) and untar it:
tar -xf db-18.1.32.tar.gz
ln -s db-18.1.32 db
4. Install dependencies
sudo apt install build-essential libnss3-dev libnspr4-dev libpopt-dev
libdb-dev zlib1g-dev libmagic-dev
5. Configure && make
CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/include/nspr -I/usr/include/nss' ./configure --without-lua
--without-python
make
Expected result: rpm is built successfully.
Actual result:

In the linker command line librmio.so and libdb.so are missing, as well
as -L options specifying path to find them. Both libraries are listed
as dependency_libs in librpm.la.
After looking at Debian patches I assumed that this issue could be
introduced by the link_all_deplibs.patch. Although after reverting it, I
figured out that even librpm.so has disappeared from the linker command
line. So it seems that some another patch breaks the libtool linking
behavior even with link_all_deplibs=unknown.
