Howdy all!
Sometimes I get these warnings (see below), and I don't really get
what libtool is trying to tell me...
It means that your hdf5 library was originally installed into a
different directory path and then the installation was moved/copied to
the place it is now. There is a warning since the content of the .la
file may no longer be correct. The .la file is just a text file so
you can take a look at what is inside and even edit it to fix the
installation paths.
It is popular to use DESTDIR to redirect installation to a temporary
directory. On some systems, this does not cause a difference but on
others the libraries should be relinked to reflect their final
location. Libtool's --mode=finish is used to fix up libraries that
need to be registered in their final resting place.
