Libtools installed but not available

Fri Mar 11, 2016 11:18 pm

I have installed libtool but it is not being picked up when I am trying to compile something that depends on it. In the case below it is libaccplus but I have it elsewhere too.

Checking I installed it:
sudo apt-get install libtool
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
libtool is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

But it is not picked up when I use ./configure:
pi@raspberrypi:~/ffmpeg/libaacplus-2.0.2 $ ./autogen.sh
–with-parameter-expansion-string-replace-capable-shell=/bin/bash
–host=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi –enable-static

You must have libtool installed to compile libaacplus.
Download the appropriate package for your system,
or get the source from one of the GNU ftp sites
listed in http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html

libtool is not recognised on the cmd line although installed. Any post configuration for it required?

any ideas?

Installing from source with the usual ./configure, make , sudo make install solved my problem.
