I also note the autotools versions have to be compatible: libtool 1.4 comes with autoconf 2.13, and libtool 1.5 comes with autoconf 2.50. Upgrade one but not the other may lead to unpredictable results.
Well, even 1.1 as-is actually requires autoconf-2.50. I was going to put add that to configure.in as part of the patch.
I don't understand: the current branch 1.1 with libtool 1.4 has always used autoconf 2.13.
The current libtool-freeradius integration is pretty sloppy, it wasn't smooth sailing trying to upgrade. We need to fix that. The libtool just changes the build process, so I'm VERY confident of its correctness. I only updated ltdl because the new libtool requires it. I'm also highly confident of ltdl correctness.
libtool isn't exactely what I'd call an "exact science". I'm more confident in the patched version we have tested for a while in CVS head than a new uptream release.
I guess the only other thing I can say here is that the difference between 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 would be the non-FR software, if folks run into problems we can just tell them to use 1.1.2 instead ... with no worries of any actual FR differences.
I completely agree with that. -- Nicolas Baradakis
