Hi list,
when I try to run my configure it complains about invalid variable names
given to the script[1]. I tried to get the source of the problem, it
seems the lines
~ *=*)
~ ac_envvar=`expr "x$ac_option" : 'x\([^=]*\)='`
~ # Reject names that are not valid shell variable names.
~ expr "x$ac_envvar" : ".*[^_$as_cr_alnum]" >/dev/null &&
~ { echo "$as_me: error: invalid variable name: $ac_envvar" >&2
~ { (exit 1); exit 1; }; }
are causing the problem. To debug the script I added an
echo "checking expression '$ac_option'"
under the
*=*)
line to see the expression which the script tries to check. But after
adding this line the problem disapeared[2], so I don't know how to debug
the script. Also I don't want to edit the configure script every time
after I runned autoconf.
The configure line which caused the problems was
../configure -C --prefix=/usr "CXXFLAGS=-Wall -Werror" "CFLAGS=-Wall
- -Werror"
So where can I dig to solve this issue?
TIA
Rudi
