Bruce,

Can you check to see if libtool has a PATH assigned to it?

I think you want `sudo apt install libltdl-dev'

I believe
1) libtool is a script generated in the guile-X.Y.Z top directory as a 
product of configure.
2) The command `apt install libtool-devel' provides the command libtoolize.

How? I'm sure it is somewhere under /usr but not /usr/local, but now
it _is_ under /usr/local 'cuz I did a source install. I'd rather dump
that one so I'm not on the hook to update it all the time.

Bruce,

Was Matt's response sufficient to solve your issue?
