It took a while to track this one down. security/chkrootkit (0.47) provides a replacement 'strings' command in /usr/local/bin, that doesn't understand the '-' argument. configure in graphics/cairo (1.4.2) uses 'strings - conftest.$ac_objext' to look for "seesnoon" / "noonsees" to determine the floating point endianess. The symptom ends up being: ================ checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... no checking whether float word ordering is bigendian... fopen: No such file or directory fopen: No such file or directory unknown configure: error: Unknown float word ordering. You need to manually preset ax_cv_c_float_words_bigendian=no (or yes) according to your system. ================ If/how you solve this is up to you. Ben -- Ben Korvemaker neb@drycold.ca
