Problems with GMP

Hi, I am having some problems when I try to use autconf with the gmp library. I have the library installed in /usr/local/lib. For example I have /usr/local/lib/libgmp.a. The problem is that if I have a configure.in with the lines AC_CHECK_LIB(gmp, mpz_init, ,

AC_OUTPUT eats VPATH

2001-02-26 Thread Rasmus Tamstorf
Hi, AC_OUTPUT seems a little agressive in terms of optimizing VPATH away from makefiles. Looking at the code in acgeneral.m4 : # VPATH is dangerous, but if there is a colon in the path, we need to # keep it. if test "x$srcdir" = x.; then ac_vpsub=['/^[]*VPATH[]*=[^:]*$/

Canonical system names

Hi, On some systems there are more variables which distinguish configurations than simply cpu, vendor and os. On mips and sparc for example you can build 32 or 64 bit code, and on, say, a mips R10K you can build your code using either the mips3 or the mips4 instruction set. What's the "proper" wa
