Hi!

I'm using libtool 2.4.6. I realize that it's removing a very important linker flag, making my linking fail. 

The command I send is:

../../libtool  --tag=CC   --mode=link /path/to/gcc -no-canonical-prefixes <other_flags> <object_files>...

And what libtool prints is:

libtool: link: /path/to/gcc -shared <other_flags> <object_files> ...

Why is the "-no-canonical-prefixes" flag removed from the linking command? If I manually execute linking outside libtool, and add the required flag, linking works successfully.

Thanks!

Thank you for the bug report! libtool should pass the
"-no-canonical-prefixes" flag to the linker now.
