Even before libtool was developed, many free software packages built and
installed their own shared libraries. At first, these packages were
examined to avoid reinventing existing features.
Now it is clear that none of these packages have documented the details
of shared library systems that libtool requires. So, other packages
have been more or less abandoned as influences.
