[OE-core] [PATCH v2] libtool: fix resolve of variable lt_sysroot

Hans Beckérus hans.beckerus at gmail.com
Tue Sep 10 10:12:08 UTC 2013


This patch updates libtool.m4 (and its output) to resolve a problem
with variable 'lt_sysroot' not being properly updated if the option
'--with[-libtool]-sysroot' is not provided when running the 'configure'
script for a package.

According to the help text ouput from 'configure':
 --with-libtool-sysroot=DIR Search for dependent libraries within DIR
                       (or the compiler's sysrooot if not specified).

Due to swapped cases in a switch statement, when checking if the option
was specified or not, wrong actions were taken resulting in an
incorrect sysroot and failures to properly locate e.g. .la files.

For current upstream status see:
