Hi, I've been looking over configure.in for the Ganglia project. The project depends on some other libs, and their locations can be specified with configure arguments, for example: --with-libconfuse=/usr/local The original configure.in would then try -L/usr/local/lib However, there are platforms where 64 bit libraries should be in */lib64, e.g. the search for libconfuse should try /usr/local/lib64 on those platforms. My initial solution is to test $host LIB_SUFFIX=lib case $host in x86_64-redhat-linux*) LIB_SUFFIX=lib64 esac but a proper solution needs to test against all the architectures listed in the FHS: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#LIB64 and also know about the non-FHS compliant cases (e.g. Debian) Is anyone aware of macros for doing this and helping me set LIB_SUFFIX correctly for a particular $host?
