Re: many packages failing to build with a libtool issue (probably nothing to do with pkg_rr)

Mkay... I generally run the moral equivalent of

nice -n ${NICENESS} pkg_rolling-replace -rusv ${_excludes} 2>&1 | tee 
${_buildlog}

from a shell script in tmux. Some packages (prominently firefox, 
thunderbird) appear to object to that (maybe the redirect?), with 
usually obscure errors, and insist on a manual build, which then 
succeeds. But the current libtool fallout is unusual.

As I mentioned, in this case too, a manual build of the package failing 
under pkg_rr then succeeds. I didn't mean to point a finger at pkg_rr, 
but the failures I see happen in builds started from it.

Cheerio,
Hauke
