libtool-2.2.6a glibtool does not handle -framework option

[mantiuk@…]

When linking with qt-mt (qt3-mac) using glibtool:

glibtool --tag=CXX   --mode=link g++  -O3      -o pfsview main.o pfsview_widget.o luminancerange_widget.o histogram.o main.moc.o pfsview_widget.moc.o luminancerange_widget.moc.o -framework Carbon -framework QuickTime -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -L/opt/local/lib -lqt-mt -lmng -ljpeg -lpng -lz   ../pfs/libpfs-1.2.la

glibtool fails with the following message:

glibtool: link: cannot find the library `' or unhandled argument `Carbon'

The same happens when all "-framework" options are removed from the command line, so this may be related to qt3-mac port.

I attach the complete output with --debug.

glibtool output with --debug option

I'm afraid that this looks more like an issue for the upstream libtool maintainers, or, more likely, the upstream qt3-mac maintainers; either way, I don't think I have the knowledge to fix it. A Google search using the terms "libtool" and "framework" returns the following mailing list threads, which you might like to bring to the attention of whomever you write to upstream:

Sorry that this is as much as I can suggest. Good luck.
