Well, things like IPv6 is auto-enable in most packages now, not just Squid. But I have expressed this before, we are doing way to many run checks at configure time. Every configure test actually running things should be carefully evaluated if - Is this really needed? - Can it be done runtime instead? - Or alternatively would an explicit configure argument work? (maybe with option for autodetect by running) Distro build farms will generally be consistent in software environment provided for the build, but MAY differ significantly in host configuration and kernel capabilities. Run tests are also very bad for cross-compilation (not possible). Regards Henrik
