Hi Bob,

Thanks for the review.

Okay to push?

This is definitely better, but there are still a few concerns. The text describing "New features" lists several libtool options which may be passed via the environment variable, but not this new --no- warn option.

--no-warn is mentioned in the ChangeLog, NEWS and several times in the texinfo documentation including an example. I can't see where you're missing it from...

The term "bailed out" may be confusing to people who are not primarily english speakers. It seems best to use terms (e.g. "quit") which are straightforward dictionary translations.

Okay, done.

If you fix these few issues, then the patch seems ok to me.


I'll push presently.

Cheers,
        Gary
