Once you'd identified a specific issue like this, filing a bug report in the bugzilla can be a good way of getting people's attention, particularly when you have a patch. The key question is the help message: --with-libtool-sysroot=DIR Search for dependent libraries within DIR (or the compiler's sysroot if not specified). so yes, this sounds like a genuine bug in libtool. Would you like to send a patch to the OE-Core mailing list which adds your patch, along with a description of the problem in the commit messages, a proper patch header (description and Upstream-Status:) and signed-off-by line? If you do, I think we'll likely include it. If not, it will need to wait for someone to turn this into a full commit which might take a little longer but it does look like a good change.
