There is an architecture option for uname? > % /usr/bin/uname -a > Darwin durmstrang 6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 6.0: Sat Jul 27 13:18:52 > PDT 2002; root:xnu/xnu-344.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc > > % /local/gnu/bin/uname -a > Darwin durmstrang 6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 6.0: Sat Jul 27 13:18:52 > PDT 2002; root:xnu/xnu-344.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh unknown Are you referring to the 'uname -p' output which is printing 'unknown' in the above? > This make config.guess and configure fail when compiling a lot of > packages. But when I look at config.guess I don't see where it would be calling 'uname -p' for the mac. Therefore I don't see how changing this would change any behavior in config.guess. And even if it did it sounds to me like this would be a config.guess problem. But it looked like config.guess avoided -p unless it knew it was available. The -p option is not a standard option. http://www.unix-systems.org/single_unix_specification_v2/xcu/uname.html As an experiment you could put a different uname in your path. Then you could change it and test the result of running config.guess with different output from uname. Perhaps changes to config.guess are needed which is frequently the case on new host platforms. Since this is a rather generic issue probably further discussion on [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be best.
