Hi Martin,
Very strange problem: if I run fink install emacs21 then the configure
thinks it has to take /lib/cpp. But if I suspend the fink install just
before the configure and give exactly the same command on the command
line (as root) it works perfectly well. Could there be a permission
difference between sudo (fink) and root (command line)? Any idea where
it could arise? I wonder if someone else will run into the same problem.
Thanks a lot.
cheers,
Remi
