>Number: 1750
>Category: general
>Synopsis: Configure encourages changes, but I can't find a suitable
>place to send them.
>Confidential: no
>Severity: non-critical
>Priority: medium
>Responsible: apache
>State: open
>Class: change-request
>Submitter-Id: apache
>Arrival-Date: Sat Jan 31 10:50:00 PST 1998
>Last-Modified:
>Originator: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>Organization:
apache
>Release: 1.2.5
>Environment:
OSF1 kap995.kao.dec.com V4.0 564 alpha alpha (that's v4.0B, no patches)
Details of environment aren't really relevant.
>Description:
Configure doesn't give help, and doesn't allow you to specify which compiler
to use.
Not a bug, but searching through src/* and this site failed to yield
an address like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
>How-To-Repeat:
As above.
>Fix:
This adds "-cc" and "-help" (and "-h" and "--help", etc.).
cheers,
mike
