Not really. AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE depends on some of these tests, and AM_GNU_GETTEXT depends on quite a few tests (AC_CHECK_PROG may depend on one, too, and AC_INIT has some blurb). You may ask on the gettext mailing list (bug-gnu-gettext aka. bug-gnu-utils) about whether the set of dependencies can be relaxed; but I would not hope for much there. (I know that AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE cannot spare much of its dependencies.) Using a cache file ./configure -C helps speed up configure reruns. I think the newest gettext should not be checking for stdlib.h any more, at least if it follows the lead of Autoconf to assume a C89 compiler now.
Thanks a lot for the help. :-) Happy hacking, Debarshi -- Anything free is worth what you pay for it. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
