Im trying to build gettext on my system which uses uclibc and no c++. I get this message when i configure. checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... no checking whether g++ accepts -g... no checking dependency style of g++... none checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check See `config.log' for more details. configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for autoconf-lib-link How do we fix this? I have tried hacking the configure script and all i get is errors. I tried changing the configure.ac on another system and rebuild the configure script, still no go. I am looking for the macro that takes care of this test but i cant find it.
