Package: libgtkhtml2
Version: 2.6.3-1
Severity: important

Hello,


The current version of libgtkhtml2 fails to build on
GNU/kFreeBSD, because of outdated libtool.

The version of libtool in libgtkhtml2 is too old to correctly 
support Debian GNU/k*BSD.  libtool 1.5.2-1 or later is need.

Here is how to update the libtool in your package (Make sure you are
using libtool 1.5.2-1 or later):
  libtoolize -c -f
  aclocal (-Im4 might be needed if there's an "m4" template dir)
  autoconf

Note that you should probably use the same version of aclocal (from 
the packages automake*) than the one used in the package. You could 
determine it by looking at the first line of Makefile.in.

It would also be nice if you can ask upstream to update libtool 
in their next release.


Thanks for your cooperation.
