Re: libtool: lib: command not found

[raziel]

Hi Peter, thank you

attacched the zzip config.log.

But the problem seem to be with any lib I try to cross build with
mingw and libtool, I wasn't sure the mail was sent to the mailing list
(usually I see immediatly the sent mail in mutt but not in this case)
so I've done a sort of cross posting *sorry* with a more generic case:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25687097/mingw-w64-libtool-lib-command-not-found

(attacched also this test config.log and the sources I'm using)
