libtool drops dylibs at link time

Description

VLC fails to build with opencv support because opencv's pkg-config file lists paths to dylibs rather than -l<lib> arguments. This should work just fine, but glibtool doesn't like it. It just drops the dylibs on the floor when creating the command line to envoke:

That sounds like a problem with opencv's pkg-config file, surely it should specify the link flags needed to link the library, which libtool then passes these onto the compiler, not the path to the libraries?

Probably fixed by jeremyhu at r117530.

My system:

Replying to stromnov@…:

No, that was a workaround in opencv.

This is a bug in glibtool.

No, it's not a bug in opencv as I already explained. You can clearly see in the command line that the linker flags *ARE* being passed to glibtoo, and glibtool is not passing them on to the linker.

Resolution: fixed
Status: assignedclosed

Given now old this ticket is, I'm guessing it's been "fixed" by newer releases ... for example libtool is at 2.4.7 & I'm updating it to 2.4.8 ; opencv (2) has been replaced by opencv3 ... I'm going to close this ticket as "fixed" ... but if someone can show otherwise then please reopen and post info as to what's still going on.

No sign of a fix for this in the commits since 2.4.6. Of course if it hasn't been reported upstream, it should be.
