Believe it or not, yes, frequently it does. Note that this is specifically in the context of Debian, which means that all of these platforms are Linux and they're all using glibc. The variation between systems is therefore much less than one might expect, and less than a lot of packages using config.guess/config.sub are adjusting for. There are a lot of packages that have one case that works on all Linux systems, and those will generally work fine on a new Debian architecture as long as config.guess/config.sub doesn't explode when attempting to determine the triplet. -- Russ Allbery (rra@xxxxxxxxxxxx) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
