No. Just a badly 'installed' libtool upgrade to 2.2. I had the binary on
the path but not the lib and include files.

I have found scratchbox very difficult with out-of-date autotools
packages. To build pulseaudio requires: autoconf >= 2.63, automake
>=1.10 and (due to a bug it appears) libtool = 2.2 (?).

None of these are available via apt-get and manually installing files
into scratchbox is v. difficult (I suspect I've completely screwed my
installation but hey-ho).

What am I doing wrong? Is there a better way?
