I just uploaded flac 1.0-1 to Debian unstable; it should appear in the archives
tomorrow. In order to get things to work correctly with libtool 1.4, I had to
apply the following patch:
--- flac-1.0.orig/ltmain.sh
+++ flac-1.0/ltmain.sh
@@ -1862,6 +1862,7 @@
else
# We cannot seem to hardcode it, guess we'll fake it.
add_dir="-L$libdir"
+ test -d $ladir/.libs && add_dir="$add_dir
-L$ladir/.libs"
add="-l$name"
fi
Without this patch, libtool 1.4 would attempt to re-link the XMMS plugin
against an installed libFLAC which was not yet installed (libtool bug). See
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-0105/msg01926.html for a discussion about
this issue, and http://bugs.debian.org/98342 for the corresponding bug report.
I'm forwarding this information here because it might affect other packagers
as
well.

The rpm builds I've been working on have been bombing because of this and I haven't had time to track the problem down. -- miles "We in the past evade X, where X is something which we believe to be a lion, through the act of running." - swiftrain@geocities.com

I haven't studied the diffs enough to try to extract that particular change, and I don't think it's worth it since the above workaround fixes things, and hopefully there will be a new stable libtool release soon, since 1.4 has this (IMHO serious) bug. -- - mdz
