Please consider - using the right configure switches to enable cross-compilation if that is an issue for you, - using a config.site file (or several such) for presetting cache variables appropriately. Both issues are extensively discussed in the Autoconf manual. Hope that helps. Cheers, Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
