WAS: <RE: ./configure in any package gives "error: cannot find input file: WINDOWSoracle.ini" error>
Tried that :( this is getting demoralising. Here are the env variables i set: $history |egrep '(=|export)' 394 export CONFIG_DIRS= 395 export CONFIG_FILES= 428 PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/kde2/bin 429 MANPATH=/usr/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/X11R6/man:/opt/gnome/man:/opt/kde2/share/man 430 INFOPATH='/usr/info;/usr/local/info;/opt/gnome/info' 431 KDEDIR=/opt/kde2 432 export PATH MANPATH INFOPATH KDEDIR 437 export HOME=/home/maufflic ./configure completes fine, but creates no Makefile. It creates all the header files (config.h etc.) though. This happens the same with or without cygwin patches applied to the source. In a fit of giving up I installed Window Maker - only to find i needeed to recompile libtiff with LZW. Interestingly, libtiff uses a non-standard configure, and this configures and makes fine. So it is purely a problem with GNU configure...
