1. Fixing old libtool installation error

    Since lately I’ve been using this blog just as a pinboard for useful stuff, today I will share something with my readership (and more importantly, google’s spiders)

    I tried to install the dieharder test suite in order to perform some tests on Random Number Generators for a report I am writing, and I stumbled upon this issue:

    libtool: Version mismatch error. This is libtool 2.2.10, but the libtool: definition of this LT_INIT comes from an older release.
    libtool: You should recreate aclocal.m4 with macros from libtool 2.2.10
    libtool: and run autoconf again.

    After a quick googling, I have been able to solve it running these commands:

    aclocal
    libtoolize --force
    autoheader
    autoconf
    ./configure
    make
