So Iâve actually chosen to avoid the mess and selectly merge the one change that we need. Looking at the history of libtool.m4 in our tree, it looks like others have done that in the past, too.
Thanks for the feedback. On the src repository, is it documented somewhere how to change it? (I have probably done it in the past, but donât remember)
