GNU Libtool 1.5.4

The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of GNU
Libtool 1.5.4.

GNU Libtool hides the complexity of using shared libraries
behind a consistent, portable interface. GNU Libtool ships with GNU
libltdl, which hides the comlexity of loading dynamic runtime
libraries (modules) behind a consistent, portable interface.

This release has fixes for bugs found in releases 1.5 and
1.5.2.

New in 1.5.4: Saturday, April 3rd 2004

Less brokenness.

libtool-1.5.4 is available now from ftp ftp.gnu.org, along with diffs and xdeltas
against libtool-1.5.2 that are also available from ftp.gnu.org/. Please use a mirror to
reduce stress on the main gnu machine:

This release was bootstrapped with autoconf-2.59 and
automake-1.8.3, but is useable with Autoconf 2.50 & later and
Automake 1.4 & later in your own projects.

Alternatively, you can fetch the unbootstrapped sourcecode from
anonymous cvs by using the following commands (just hit return when
you are prompted for the password):

   $ export CVS_RSH=ssh
   $ cvs -z3 -d :ext:anoncvs@savannah.gnu.org:/cvsroot/libtool 
   co -r release-1-5-4 libtool

You will then need to have the latest release versions of
Automake (1.8.3) and Autoconf (2.59) installed to bootstrap the
checked out sources yourself.

Please report bugs to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.
