Huh - I suppose that we could consider gnulib to be the current upstream of a porting effort for getopt to other platforms. And if that is the case, then creating an updated libgnugetopt might be as simple as: gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=libgnugetopt getopt-gnu >>> if you use autoconf 2.64 (prior to that, if the existence and >>> compilation checks disagree, autoconf went with the existence check). >> >> We are using autoconf 2.65. Then I'm confused how /opt/csw/include/getopt.h is getting included at all in the first place. What does config.log say about getopt? >> I updated gnulib to 2f3175, but the failure remains the same for bison. >> >> Is there any more information we can provide? > > Thanks for your efforts! I guess I'll have to try logging on to the Solaris machine again, and this time going for the full bison compile rather than just the minimal gnulib test. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
