In a nutshell, libtool wraps the executable and organises the environement so 
that any shared libs you are working on are found from _within_ your project 
rather than any old installed shared libs. 
 
So it could be important that you use libtool depending on whether you have a 
shared lib in your project. 
 
However, note that kparts are shared libs but these are "dlopened" and 
unfortunately your project part won't be found if it's not installed. This 
needs some work to fix, but the workaround is to intall it so it's low(ish) on 
the priority :( 
 
What I'd really like to know is why your libtool is failing. 
 
Do a "which libttol". There should be one in /usr/bin? In the debugger optioins 
try setting libtool to be "/usr/bin/libtool" and see if that works.
