Hello,
I am trying to put checks for available programs in a
for loop in a configure.ac script.
My first attempt was:
for NAME in cp du mv rm sh su mkdir rmdir bunzip2
bzip2 compress gunzip gzip tar unzip zip
do
AC_PATH_PROG($NAME, $NAME, [no])
done
This does not work, so I wrote this terrible hack:
for NAME in cp du mv rm sh su mkdir rmdir bunzip2
bzip2 compress gunzip gzip tar unzip zip
do
QNAME=$NAME
AC_PATH_PROG(QNAME, $NAME, [no])
eval $NAME=$QNAME
unset ac_cv_path_QNAME
done
Can someone shed some light on how the thing should be
properly done?
Thanks for any advice
