Description Roy Marples 2006-12-12 14:18:06 UTC 
When trying to install librsvg on Gentoo/FreeBSD, it fails with the error "file exists" when trying to make a directory. This is easily fixed by upgrading auto autogen'ed install-sh file that was probably made by an old libtool. Using a newer one from automake-1.9 or 1.10 or libtool-1.5.22 have been tested to work fine.

See Gentoo bug http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157912 for details.

Here is the exact error - also happens with librsvg-2.16.1

The next package I upload will be built using libtool 1.5.22
