No, he didn't (and since I'm the upstream author myself, I guess I can be fairly sure here :-) >It gets configured somewhere. Autoconf didn't come up with that on its >own. I sure didn't write it into the configure.in file. Hmm... judging from the generated configure, this seems to be an artifact introduced by the check for the getloadavg function: ac_have_func=no # yes means we've found a way to get the load average. # Some systems with -lutil have (and need) -lkvm as well, some do not. # On Solaris, -lkvm requires nlist from -lelf, so check that first # to get the right answer into the cache. I'll file a bug against autoconf when I have investigated this a bit more. -- Thomas Koenig, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] The joy of engineering is to find a straight line on a double logarithmic diagram. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
