Re: [Libcdio-devel] Add support for new arch 'ppc64le' in "libcdio" upstream package

[Rocky Bernstein]

By "outdated libtool" do you mean something other than the libtool on
*alpha*.gnu.org that has yet to go into general release?  If so, you have a
somewhat odd meaning of "outdated".

Also, while on the topic of outdated, the current libcdio version is
release 0.92 which you can get from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/
libcdio/libcdio-0.92.tar.gz.
