On cygwin, 'make install-strip' in a libtoolized, automake-driven project ends up stripping the import library, instead of the DLL. This is bad: not only is the DLL unstripped, but stripping an import library can sometimes break it, and make the installed lib unlinkable. e.g. this command: /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c -s 'libgg.la' '/usr/lib/libgg.la' does the wrong thing. The following patch was submitted on the cygwin list by Peter Ekberg. It fixes this problem, and incurs no regressions in the testsuite when I used it. -- Chuck -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
