Try with 2.49c, and study the config.log.

Problem detecting libraries.

2001-01-26 Thread Stephen Torri
Here is the output from autoconf (v2.19) and (v2.49d). I am sure I am probably got something wrong so I include both complete config.log files. I am sorry if its too long but if there is an common practice for making requests for help let me know. Stephen --- configure.in ---

Man, I must say that your sending config.log.2.13 vs config.log.2.50 makes me extremely proud of the work we've done in the area! Looking at the first failures: configure:2576: checking for notifyAll in -lJTC configure:2603: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lJTC >&5 /tmp/ccO7oDLg.o: In fun

Stephen, You need to ensure that your configure script tests for libraries in the order of least dependent to most dependent, and appends each library discovered to the LIBS variable. Unfortunately Autoconf does not understand library dependencies so you must determine these by yourself (use 'ld

I fail to understand the login in autoreconf for when to run autoheader. With this simple configure.in: -- AC_INIT(configure.in) AC_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h) AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)

Sorry I disappeared for a while.. I just ran the old AC_F77_WRAPPERS test with source checked out just now, and it fails once again (rather than just assuming the compiler is broken) How can I help take this further? (and BTW testsuite -h doesn't print usage anymore) Cheers, Patrick On Mon, Ja

In _AS_TEST_PREPARE, we might end up echoing errors from non-working test commands to the user which is confusing (at least to me). A more serious problem is in AS_MKDIR_P. It sets IFS to '\\/' and it seems that some sh:s (which are probably really ksh:s) will use the first character (backslash)
