It's needed for cross-building because the configure script can only do checks for one compile-environment, and the source you're building with includes headers that rely on the extra checks. When not cross compiling, those are built using the flags used for the target. I simplified that last month in this change, making the extra flags unneeded: 20100522 + simplify include-dependencies of make_hash and make_keys, to reduce the need for setting BUILD_CPPFLAGS in cross-compiling when the build- and target-machines differ. -- Cross build needs rpath with xdeb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598389 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
