Description

Libtool is a tool that facilitates the creation and use of portable libraries for software. It provides a uniform interface for building, installing, and using shared and static libraries, regardless of differences between systems.

Libtool simplifies library management by hiding the peculiarities of compilers and operating systems. It typically integrates with GNU Automake and GNU Autoconf, enabling the production of portable and consistent compilation systems across many Unix and Linux platforms.
