Exactly. The point is: I have to maintain lots of packages for different distros, as well as for my own build system. I cannot do this manually for each single distro, so I prefer doing _generic_ fixes and let the distro buildfiles only do the plain standard build process (eg. ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make install). cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ----------------------------------------------------------------------
