If I remove the ltcf-c.sh from the DIST_COMMON  in the Makefile.in,  ' make
rpm ' will work properly; if I add the ltcf-c.sh into the tarbz2 or to CVS, it
will work also(without changing the Makefile.in).
Oh, and all the other XFce4 cvs items that do not have the file  ltcf-c.sh 
also do not have it spec'd in the  Makefile.in  so they just work...

AFAIK, Mandrake does not run libtoolize because they, this system, still uses
libtool 1.4.x.
Most often they change spec files to define libtoolize as  /bin/true  so that
'libtoolize' does nothing.  However that is done on a per spec/per program
basis - it is not in the rpmrc to define it that way.  Maybe it should be...

Are you also saying that the DIST_COMMON= items in the  Makefile.in  do not
need to match what are supplied with the program?   That's not what I
understand from what I have read, _but_ I have not used auto* . (in ~2years,
and, really, not then either so you guys could tell me it makes breakfast,
too, and I would have to 'info' it... :)
