KDE's copy of libltdl doesn't follow the deplib-chain. In former times I
thought about activating it (before it was in libtools libltdl), but as it
exhibits quadratic behaviour I didn't. And I was to lazy to implement the
proper solution (a cache of already loaded .la files), so it still relies
on the OS. What version of libltdl are you using with KDE2?
Ciao,
Michael.
