Slibtool

Skinny libtool implementation, written in C

slibtool is an independent reimplementation of the widely used libtool, written in C. slibtool is designed to be a clean, fast, easy-to-use libtool drop-in replacement, and is accordingly aimed at package authors, distro developers, and system integrators. slibtool maintains compatibility with libtool in nearly every aspect of the tool’s functionality as well as semantics, leaving out or turning into a no-op only a small number of features that are no longer needed on modern systems.

Being a compiled binary, and although not primarily written for the sake of performance, building a package with slibtool is often faster than with its script-based counterpart. The resulting performance gain would normally vary between packages, and is most noticeable in builds that invoke libtool a large number of times, and which are characterized by the short compilation duration of individual translation units.
