[users@httpd] Cross Compile Apache2?

["Tony Di Croce" <dicroce@xxxxxxxxx>]

Has anyone here ever tried to cross compile apache2?

I've gotten past a lot of issues but I'm pretty stuck right now...

/root/httpd-2.0.59/srclib/apr/libtool --silent --mode=link ppc_4xx-gcc  -g -O2    -DLINUX=2 -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DAP_HAVE_DESIGNATED_INITIALIZER   -I/root/httpd-

It looks like its picking up libraries from my host (/usr/lib/libexpat.so)... I have a root filesystem image with the correct versions of these libraries... Is their any way to tell buildconf about my "alternate" root?

BTW... If I get this done, I'm gonna write a tutorial and put it up so others can learn from my suffering! :)
