lrwxrwxrwx 1 edscott users 16 nov 3 00:18 librfm.so -> librfm1.so.1.0.1
But the
librfm.la file specifies a weird name:
# The name that we can dlopen(3).
dlname='librfmlibrfm1.so.1.so.1'
This symlink gets generated when I do a make install. Why does libtool use this weird name?
I guess it means something, but I can't figure it out. Other libraries I create with libtool have regular
a "dlname" (one of the "library_names").
Could anyone please tell me what libtool means when this kind of weird dlname is generated in the .la file?
Any pointer would be greatly appreciated.
