bug#30169: Libtool doesn't build correctly with multiple check library dependencies

In order to help you, It works better if you show us code. :-)

Ideally you would provide a minimal example to let others reproduce the
bug.  You can use “${prefix}/share/doc/automake/amhello-1.0.tar.gz”
example as a basis and add what doesn't work for you.

Thanks.
