After the next commit, pkg-config could be used for the shared library configuration case and sdl-config for static libraries. So I prepare the test here by doing two changes:
at the same time I remove useless backslashes from the invocation of grep; 1) fixing a typo ($sd_cflags). The typo has been there since commit 1ac88f2 (remove sdl_static. Just do the right thing if static is yes, 2009-07-27). 2) fixing an erroneous "test `... | grep > /dev/null`" idiom that would never succeed since grep's output would be empty; 3) checking the status code after executing sdl-config --static --libs; this is needed for the next patch only. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonz...@redhat.com> --- 1 and 2 above show that the aalib-config case is not very much used. In addition to this, on my system aalib-config does not support --static-libs at all. So I was very much tempted to nuke the aalib-config handling completely. configure | 6 +++--- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/configure b/configure index f3584db..b8641b8 100755 --- a/configure +++ b/configure @@ -1009,12 +1009,12 @@ EOF fi fi - # static link with sdl ? + # static link with sdl ?
