Description Johnny Hughes 2006-03-09 12:15:17 UTC 
Description of problem:
libtool has a requirement for gcc version.  The current version of libtool
provided with RHEL 4 requires gcc-3.4.3

The gcc shipped with RHEL is now gcc-3.4.5

libtool needs to be rebuilt with gcc-3.4.5 (and for every change of gcc) or the
change (from the changelog) for Fri Feb 25 2005 needs to be backed out of libtool.

How reproducible:
Always
Comment 1 Karsten Hopp 2006-05-31 10:24:55 UTC 
gcc-3.4.5 provides gcc-3.4.3, too:
$ rpm -qp --provides gcc-3.4.5-2.i386.rpm
gcc = 3.4.3-26
gcc34
gcc = 3.4.5-2

And it provides all neccessary files:
$ rpm -qpl gcc-3.4.5-2.i386.rpm | grep .3.4.3
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3/crtbegin.o
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3/crtbeginS.o
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3/crtbeginT.o
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3/crtend.o
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3/crtendS.o
...
Comment 2 Alex Owen 2006-09-07 22:27:29 UTC 
arguably the dependancy in libtool should be: gcc (>= 3.4.3)
