In this case, the default becomes the system type you specified. ***If you specify both, and they're different, configure enters cross compilation mode***, so it doesn't run any tests that require execution. Hint: if you mean to override the result of config.guess, prefer --build over --host. In the future, --host will not override the name of the build system type. Whenever you specify --host, be sure to specify --build too. -- Nick Bowler, Elliptic Technologies (http://www.elliptictech.com/) _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
