I noticed my recently submitted package libzeep does not build on
architectures other than amd64. The configure script dies since it
cannot find the library to link against.
When I tried this on a Debian buster install on an armel system, I had
the same problem. One way to work around this is defining a variable in
advance, like this:
iftest"x$ax_boost_user_program_options_lib"= "x"; then
ax_boost_user_program_options_lib=boost_program_options
fi
before the statement:
AX_BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS in the configure.as script.
Is this a known problem? The variable AX_BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS refers to
a m4 macro that originates from the autoconf-archive package and that
package hasn't changed recently as far as I can see. So the reason for
failure must lie elsewhere.
I can try to figure out what really goes wrong, but since that might
involve quite a bit of work, I'd rather do that only when really necessary.
