Dear libtool experts,
I'm the author of a C++ Apache module which uses an Apache-supplied libtool
in its build process.
Some time ago people started reporting the "unable to infer tagged
configuration" error from libtool. It seemed to depend on particular
distribution / version issues, but I never saw it myself. Someone worked out
that the solution was to add "--tag=CXX", but I don't know how they worked
that out since I have never found any documentation for this mysterious --tag
option.
For quite a few years now, Automake has provided the --tag= option
automatically. The --tag option tells libtool which language tool (C,
C++, Fortran) is currently in use so the correct options are used.
Otherwise it would have to guess based on the name of the tool and
guessing is hard. Is Apache using Automake?
