Hi,

I'm running 4.2-stable on i386 and was wanting to turn on some
configuration options (for specific subpackages) that are turned off
by default when one runs builds xenocara using the vanilla process in
the /usr/src/xenocara/README file and the FAQ.

I checked out the stable source for xenocara and it builds and
installs successfully by following the usual procedure:

# cd /usr/src/xenocara
# make bootstrap
# make obj
# make build

I made sure that I installed the additional GNU autotools packages
that are listed in the README, and /usr/X11R6/bin is in my PATH .

I have a specific example of something I'd like to modify: I'd really
like to change some of the options for app/xterm, say to enable 256
color support, which is turned off when doing the default build.

If I were running the configure script manually I could do the
following in app/xterm, for example:

#cd /usr/src/xenocara/app/
#sh configure --enable-256-color

(which should enable that option)

I'm not sure that that will get picked up properly when I do a make
build though.

What is the proper way to set things up so that the xenocara wrapper
scripts know to turn on those non-standard options?

Any recommendations would be really appreciated.

Thanks,

Connor
