  This report of mine is wrong.  The original name "libgnu" is the right one.

  So make the report invalid.

Dave posed a query in comment #3, and I'm not sure what to do
about it until that's answered.

If this is more prep for when we eventually update our gnulib
submodule, such suggestion should probably be coalesced into a
single ticket.

Whatever else turns out to be the case with this ticket, let's
spell the file name correctly.

What differentiates this bug from bug #60855?  The original submission doesn't say what incorrect behavior or result it is trying to fix beyond that of #60855.

  "gnulib_name" is defined in "bootstrap" as "lib$package", so it is unnecessary to define it in "bootstrap.conf".

  That fixes this bug and the other one named in the original report.

Subject: bootstap.conf: fix value of "gnulib_name"

  The value of "gnulib_name" is "gnulib", not "libgnu".

  This change fixes the bug #60855.
