Version: 2.0

All incarnations of admin/ltconfig do not specify the location of the file 
command. Instead, @FILE@ is there, expecting something to preprocess the file.

As a result, the generated libtool cannot find @FILE@ and complains (and does 
not properly link libraries).

This happens on at least BSD/OS, but may create havoc elsewhere as well.

Suggested patch is:

diff -r kdesupport.old/admin/ltconfig kdesupport/admin/ltconfig
527c527
< test -z "$FILE" && FILE=/usr/bin/file
---
> test -z "$FILE" && FILE=@FILE@


Or, if the file should be preprocessed, this shoule be handled in configure.

Daniel Kalchev
