Yes, it was mentioned multiple times in this thread already and it was always forgotten. Please consider this approach. One thing was not mentioned here - if there was a CONFIG_GUESS/CONFIG_SUB environment variables, what would be the consequences of having it solved directly in config.{guess,sub} files? I mean, if there was defined CONFIG_GUESS environment variable, the config.guess could try to call 'config.guess' file somewhere in $PATH? pros: we are able to easily patch also old packages (no-need to autoreconfigure) Pavel _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
