This sort of thing is why autoconf and friends support setting CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS in the environment. :) I think it's unreleastic to try to take into account every bizarre combination of compilers and run-time; including -I/usr/include can completely break things and including -L/usr/lib makes it almost impossible to use locally-installed versions of vendor libraries, so they both cause significant enough problems that I think it's worth asking the people with odd compilers to set the appropriate environment variables themselves if the compiler they're using really needs to be told about those directories. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
