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>.
