Hmm - on MacOSX 10.1.5 - one for the autoconf experts.. cvs co apr; cd apr ./configure ...... checking for mmap that can map /dev/zero... no decision on anonymous shared memory allocation method... 4.4BSD-style mmap() via MAP_ANON decision on namebased memory allocation method... SysV IPC shmget() checking for calloc... yes ..... make && make install
==> all happy but: $ cvs co httpd-2.0 $ cd srclib $ cvs co apr apr-util $ ./configure Cecking for os2.h... no /Users/dirkx/ORA/httpd-2.0/srclib/apr/configure:Error: decision on anonymous shared memory allocation method failed srclib/apr configured properly ./configure: no such file or directory: ./srclib/apr/apr-config [2057] ./configure: no such file or director And the above can be reproduced by doing a 'cat config.log in the above to see how the httpd-2.0 configure starts the apr configure: $ cvs co apr $ cd apr $ prefix=/foo /bar/httpd-2.0/srclib/apr/configure --prefix=/foo --enable-auth-dbm --enable-auth-anon --enable-access-dbm --enable-auth-digest --enable-maintainer-mode --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=/bar/httpd-2.0/apr --prefix=/foo --exec-prefix=/foo --libdir=${prefix}/lib --includedir=/foo/include --bindir=${prefix}/bin --datadir=/foo --with-installbuilddir=${prefix}/build So questions about the above; is it worrysome that we have --prefix in there twice. And secondly that some still are ${prefix} i.e. not substituted ? And finally - anything obviously wrong ? Dw
