Hi, I'm currently trying to port php-gtk which has some problematic build-dependencies: * automake 1.4 * autoconf 2.13 * libtool 1.4.2 (At least this combination is reported to work, see http://gtk.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.php) However, any combination I tried did not lead to a stable port that builds on any system. Sometimes I have been able to create a working configure-script, but the port that did work fine on one host did fail on another. I guess these problems are caused by the old libtool, so currently there is no good way to solve this problem. I am thinking of taking the configure-script and any created files from a host where the port worked, ship it in an additional tgz and just extract that second tgz before the configure-process. Would this be a good solution or would you say this is crap? Thanks for any advice and greets from Karlsruhe, Alex -- Alex Kiesel PGP Key: 0x09F4FA11 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
