Re: FreeWRL plugin, libtool problem

[Michel Briand]

Build log, this may help ;).

I note that libtool complains, and say "warning: remember to run
`libtool --finish /usr/lib'". I note that I never hear about this step ;).

When I build the .deb in my dev directory (as normal user), all is fine
(libtool install mode is called).

But when I build the .deb with pbuilder (as Debian policy recommends
it), it's not the case.

Any clue ?
Cheers,
Michel
