[Libguestfs] "/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld" path appearing in some libguestfs tarballs

Because of a Fedora bug in libtool[1], some libguestfs tarballs that I built contain a hard-coded path to a 'redhat-hardened-ld' linker script inside libtool. You will find that on non-Fedora/RHEL/CentOS platforms, the build will fail with an error similar to this: gcc: error: /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld: No such file or directory The affected tarballs are: http://libguestfs.org/download/1.28-stable/libguestfs-1.28.9.tar.gz http://libguestfs.org/download/1.29-development/libguestfs-1.29.37.tar.gz http://libguestfs.org/download/1.29-development/libguestfs-1.29.38.tar.gz http://libguestfs.org/download/1.29-development/libguestfs-1.29.39.tar.gz If you have to build these tarballs, one workaround is to run `autoreconf -i' to rebuild the autotools-generated files such as libtool and ltmain.sh. However I am also now building new tarballs of: - libguestfs 1.28.10 - libguestfs 1.29.40 which will supercede the affected tarballs and should fix the problem. These will be available later today. I have also updated the tool which builds libguestfs releases so it will detect the problem in case it happens again in future. Thanks: Darius Clark for first reporting the issue. Rich.
