Hi, i try to configure, compile and install the "textutils-2.0". My host system is i386-pc-linux, the target is powerpc-linux (embedded board). All this fails early when i try to configure: schleim:/powerpc-linux/usr/src/CDK/src/textutils-2.0 # ./configure \ --target=powerpc-linux \ --prefix=/powerpc-linux/nfsroot \ --host=i386-pc-linux <lots of output snipped> checking for AFS checking for stdlib.h... (cached) yes checking whether <inttypes.h> defines strtoumax as a macro... no checking for strtoumax... yes checking for working re_compile_pattern... no checking for strcasecmp... yes checking for strncasecmp... yes checking for dup2... yes checking for memchr... yes checking for memmove... yes checking for getpagesize... yes checking whether setvbuf arguments are reversed... configure: error: can not run test program while cross compiling schleim:/powerpc-linux/usr/src/CDK/src/textutils-2.0 # I get the same error when i try to configure "sh-utils-2.0". I successfully configured, compiled and installed "fileutils-4.0". Thank you very much for any hints, Torsten. _______________________________________________ Bug-textutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-textutils
