libtool

[Salvatore Domenick Desiano]

It sounds like GNAT is hard wired to look for libtool. I don't have 
access to the GNAT website or the download, so I can't tell you how to 
change which libtool to look for.

I can think of three possibile solutions:
1) temporarily move /usr/lib/libtool out of the way (not a great idea, 
   and absolutely don't forget to put it back)
2) temporarily link .../glibtool to .../libtool (not great, but 
   workable, and also don't forget to remove it)
3) change the GNAT build system to look for glibtool instead of libtool 
   (the GNAT mailing list is your best bet for this).
