No (at least not for me ;)
To everyone messing with config.m4 scripts:
I think it doesn't make sense to detect
libraries in the following way:
for i in /usr /usr/local/ $PHP_PNG_DIR; do ....
*IF* there are libraries already installed in /usr/ or /usr/local
and the use provides a $PHP_PNG_DIR , the custom directory will
not be detected.
This is a great mistake. Same with the order in general. It
really should be:
for i in $PHP_PNG_DIR /usr/local /usr; do ...
First, what the user specified, than for additional installed
libraries (/usr/local/) and then the system defaults.
On the other hand, I may be completely wrong and there is a valid
reason (would make sense because most m4 scripts I quickly looked
at have the ordering of the directories like the first example I
gave) but then I just don't see it.
