Follow-up Comment #2, sr #111195 (group libtool):=0A=0A=0A> Here is what I =
have for the documentation updates, but I would be happy to=0A> update with=
 more detail=0A=0AThanks; I can work on expanding that.=0A=0A> I am wonderi=
ng why it should be moved from gnulib to libtool.=0A=0AThe script implement=
s a "wizard" for a package maintainer who is using=0Alibtool. Since the doc=
 node "Updating version info" is in the libtool manual,=0Athe natural place=
 for it is in libtool.=0A=0AThe main reason that I added the script to gnul=
ib in 2019 was that at that=0Atime, libtool was essentially unmaintained. (=
The previous libtool release had=0Abeen in 2015.)=0A=0A> It could probably =
be incorporated with the gnulib submodule rather than=0A> existing in the l=
ibtool repository.=0A=0AUgh, that would be backwards. The gnulib git reposi=
tory serves as a place that=0Adistributes individual files from various pro=
jects (config.guess from config,=0Ainstall-sh from automake, texinfo.tex fr=
om texinfo, install.texi from=0Aautoconf, mini-gmp.c from gmp, etc. This is=
 for developer convenience,=0Aespecially for files that vary independently =
of releases. So, it would be=0Apossible that gnulib mirrors the script from=
 its upstream location in=0Alibtool.=0A=0A> Could you supply a patch for ho=
w you intend libtool to distribute the=0A> script?=0A=0ASure. I'll get to t=
hat tomorrow.=0A=0A=0A    _________________________________________________=
