+# Libtool race fix
+# libweston-desktop depends on libweston, and desktop-shell depends on both.
+# This leads to a libtool race at installation, because libtool re-links
+# everything.
+# If you add more fixes, you may need a workaround to keep automake generated
+# targets. See http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=7328
