From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 Description of problem: I am unable to compile this. I've installed all the packages it states that it requires but it has a problem with libtool and never gets past the configure command. I have libtool-1.5-8 installed. This is the stderr output... + ./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=athlon-redhat-linux-gnu --program-prefix= --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib --libexecdir=/usr/libexec --localstatedir=/var --sharedstatedir=/usr/com --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-sql --enable-error-on-warning=no --enable-ofx --enable-hbci Some deprecated features have been used.

Expected Results: well, either it should work with this version of libtool, or the spec file should specify what version of libtool is required. I notice that the LIBTOOL flag is specifically set in the .spec file. I've tried commenting out this setting of the flag. That actually solved the immediate problem and it did start compiling. Additional info:
Do you have libgtkhtml-devel installed?
The libtool problem appears to be fixed, a current rebuild doesn't fail at this point anymore (although it fails later during the creation of the help docs, see bug 140344)
