Upstart trunk build error. Libtool not picking correct dbus library.

[Sandeep Puddupakkam (spuddupa)]

Hi,
I am trying to compile upstart for ppc. 
I built (cross compiled) dbus and the libraries are in
/nobackup/spuddupa/nova/linkfarm/ppc/lib
I ran configure on upstart using the following DBUS_CFLAGS and DBUS_LIBS
DBUS_CFLAGS="-I$(BINOS_TARGET_DEST_ABS_DIR)/usr/include/dbus-1.0
-I$(BINOS_TARGET_DEST_ABS_DIR)/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include"
DBUS_LIBS="-L$(BINOS_TARGET_DEST_ABS_DIR)/usr/lib -ldbus-1"

Configure seems to run fine and it generated the makefiles
make fails with the following error.

/************************/
The issue is that libtool is picking up /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so instead of

/nobackup/spuddupa/nova/linkfarm/ppc/usr/lib/libdbus-1.so

To debug the issue, I ran the libtool cmd with the debug option and it
generated the log file that I have attached.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sandeep
