I'm trying to compile GNU Octave and its new Qt GUI on a Mac OSX with Homeb=
rew. Homebrew installs the Qt frameworks in /usr/local/Cellar/qt/4.8.5/lib,=
 so after some fiddling with the configure script I get this:

QT_LDFLAGS=3D-F/usr/local/Cellar/qt/4.8.5/lib
QT_LIBS=3D-framework QtCore -framework QtGui -framework QtNetwork

However, the libtool script does not handle the -F argument through properl=
y, so it is stripped out of the linking process.

I created the following patch for the generated libtool script, which cause=
s libtool to treat -F exactly like it treats -L. This seems to do the trick=
.

I did notice that scanning through past discussions that this has come up a=
 couple of times, but there is reluctance to provide ful support for -F for=
 some reason. Perhaps the relative simplicity of this patch would convince =
you to reconsider. If not, we can certainly entertain applying this patch i=
n Homebrew itself.

Regards,
Michael
