[Resending this with more detail since I didn't realize bug-owl@mit
doesn't forward to bug-owl@ktools]
Kretch,
configure runs fine for me until it hits the recursive section, at
which point it fails with the following output because the LIBS that
was generated for owl is being used for libfaim.
configure: running /bin/bash './configure' --prefix=/usr/local
'CFLAGS=-Iinclude' --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=.
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error:
C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
configure: error: /bin/bash './configure' failed for libfaim
I have put the config.log files for the original output in
/mit/jdaniel/Public/owl.
This change seems to fix my problem. I'm still not sure why LIBS was
being carried over into the recursive configure. If you can make any
further sense out of it please let me know.
