I must be doing (or not doing) something else, because I am already
using libtool 1.5.6 and experiencing these 2 problems.
I grep'd around a bit and found that my aclocal.m4 file (generated
automatically by aclocal) has the following section:
dnl And a similar setup for Fortran 77 support
AC_PROVIDE_IFELSE([AC_PROG_F77],
[AC_LIBTOOL_F77],
[define([AC_PROG_F77], defn([AC_PROG_F77])[AC_LIBTOOL_F77
])])
Is this the source of the checks for the fortran compiler and any ideas
on why aclocal is putting it there?
Thanks,
Wil

Probably the other projects are not using libtool.
The next major release of libtool will allow you to specify the
languages that should be configured.

Hi all,
I'm still getting to know the whole autoconf/automake/libtool
system, so I apologize if these questions are really stupid...
1) configure is checking for Fortran compilers, but my project
doesn't use Fortran. I found one of the fortran commands in the
aclocal.m4 file that was generated by aclocal. Any ideas why aclocal
thinks I need fortran?
2) I notice some other GNU projects I've compiled don't have the
"checking the maximum length of command line arguments" test, which
is time consuming. I'd like to get rid of this if possible. How?
Yep, and the second qustion has been largely solved with recent
versions of libtool. Try libtool 1.5.6.
cheers,
