Libtool now unconditional in INN CURRENT

Thanks for this first move.


Just a quick feedback of the update on my news server.
I ran into problems after the first "make update".  (Now solved.)

I reconfigured INN, and built it.  Still, INN refused to start.

nnrpd.OLD is the previous version (without libtool); nnrpd is the new one.


I found out with "ldconfig -v" that the libraries were redirected this way:

        libinnhist.so.2 -> libinnhist.so.2.0.0.OLD
        libstorage.so.2 -> libstorage.so.2.0.0.OLD
        libinn.so.2 -> libinn.so.2.0.0.OLD

It shows that the new installed version uses the .OLD files!
Strange…
I ran "make update" a second time, which solved the problem.  INN then started fine.

Is there something to worry about (and to fix during the update)?
