configure scripts simply aren't good at cross-compiling. A typical approach is to run the configure script and just correct the results after the fact. A few of my ports do this by running ed scripts that replace definitions with appropriate #ifdef'd values. - Toby _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
