autoconf-2.66 has a bug in , I assume that skynet's version has been locally patched as I kept getting errors on my PC , so we might as well go for the latest autotools , it seems to work fine , and fixes at least one thing , yasm's configure now detects Python (not that it matters at the mo for us) (I'm hoping it will fix MinGW64's make speed tune try ) We will have to install a local copy of the latest autotools on skynet or the sage cluster or some other common computer. It's easy to install as the main/root copy , just ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install for libtool-2.4 autoconf-2.68 automake-1.11.1 (no change here for skynet) it takes about 20 seconds to build and install Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mpir-devel" group.
