And which is the archive list where under a glade related header i may
find the solution, or even better yet, what would be the magical libtool
invocation/configuration which would enable libgtop2 to be built against
the right libraries ? Or at least a more concrete hint to where i might
find this information ?
Still i think it is a bug, since these libraries are linked, not at
install time, but at build time, when the libraries they are supposed to
link to are not yet installed on the system. The proof that it is a bug
is that the resulting package is broken :)))
