-to other implementations. Therefore, GNU Libtool an optional dependency of
-Gnuastro. If it isn't present on your system during configuration,
address@hidden won't be built or installed. The configure script will
-look for GNU Libtool through the following executable names in your search
-path @command{libtool} (acceptable only if it is the GNU implementation) or
address@hidden

-Libtool (the binary/executable file) is a low-level program that is
-probably already present on your system (and in your operating system
-package manager). However, if you want to install it's latest version from
