Source: scim Version: 1.4.18-1 Tags: patch upstream User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: rebootstrap
scim fails to cross build from source, because it wrongly uses AC_CHECK_FILE in configure.ac. That macro is intended to figure out whether a file exists on the host machine. However it is used in some (not all) cases to discover files on the build machine. For the latter a simple test -f works. After doing so, scim cross builds successfully. Please consider applying the attached patch. Helmut
From: Helmut Grohne <hel...@subdivi.de> Subject: fix cross compilation We are not interested in whether these .xsl files exist on the host machine, but want to know whether they exist on the build machine. Thus AC_CHECK_FILE must not be used.
