3.6 Installing executables

If you used libtool to link any executables against uninstalled libtool libraries (see section Linking executables), you need to use libtool to install the executables after the libraries have been installed (see section Installing libraries).

So, for our Ultrix example, we would run:

a23# libtool --mode=install -c hell /usr/local/bin/hell
install -c hell /usr/local/bin/hell
a23#

On shared library systems that require wrapper scripts, libtool just ignores the wrapper script and installs the correct binary:

burger# libtool --mode=install -c hell /usr/local/bin/hell
install -c .libs/hell /usr/local/bin/hell
burger#
