[Bug 253286] Re: kdevelop project was broken when going to 8.10

[christian imhorst]

I think this is a problem of KDevelop, because they use an outdated
script of ltmain.sh in their template files. Intrepid Ibex is shipped
with libtool version 2.2.4 - probably Jaunty is shipped with a newer one
- but the ltmain.sh file in the KDevelop templates creates a libtool
version 1.5.24. To fix this I can replace every libtool in my source
tree with a link to /usr/bin/libtool but there is a better workaround to
do this for all KDevelop projects:

First I've copied the directory "/usr/share/apps/kdevappwizard/" to
"$HOME/.kde/share/apps/". Next I've extracted the archive
"$HOME/.kde/share/apps/kdevappwizard/template-common/incadmin.tar.gz"
and I've replaced the old file "ltmain.sh" with the new one from
"/usr/share/libtool/config/ltmain.sh". Then I've packed the archive
again to a new one named "incadmin.tar.gz" and replaced the old archive
with the new one. Now the script ltmain.sh creates a current libtool in
the source tree of my program while compilation and my source code
compiles without any error.

There is no need to downgrade libtool.

Regards,
Christian
