Yup! ;-)

Also aclocal will remake aclocal.m4 from your installed libtool.m4, but you 
still have ltmain.sh (and ltconfig) from the distributers version.  We have 
recommended that packagers should `cat /usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 >> 
acinclude' to make sure that the packaged ltmain.sh matches the macros.  If 
the package has done this you will also need to remove acinclude.m4 and 
rebuild it from libtool.m4 (and perhaps other files) to match the new 
ltmain.sh pulled in by libtoolize.  Oh, and don't forget to rerun aclocal to 
remake aclocal.m4.

Cheers,
        Gary.
