Just saw this in Configure after Cliff's note (which is resolved): #################################################################### ## Add in the Expat library if needed/wanted. ##
# set the default, based on whether expat-lite is bundled. if it is present, # then we can always include expat. if [ "x$RULE_EXPAT" = "xdefault" ]; then if [ -d ./lib/expat-lite/ ]; then RULE_EXPAT=yes else RULE_EXPAT=no fi fi if [ "x$RULE_EXPAT" = "xyes" ]; then if ./helpers/TestCompile lib expat; then echo " + using system Expat" LIBS="$LIBS -lexpat" else if [ "$xRULE_EXPAT" = "xyes" ]; then ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ echo "ERROR: RULE_EXPAT set to \"yes\" but is not available." exit 1 fi echo " + using builtin Expat" EXPATLIB="lib/expat-lite/libexpat.a" APLIBDIRS="expat-lite $APLIBDIRS" CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -DUSE_EXPAT -I\$(SRCDIR)/lib/expat-lite" fi fi Note the line above the '^^^^'. Luckily, this section still works as required (lucky typo)... But there's a mismatch of logic here, regarding what the EXPAT rule really means... Right now, if there's a system expat lib, it will *always* be chosen, and there's no way to bypass that. Up to now, I think we've always been using expat-lite... Because of this, it's pretty important that we test out 1.3.21 as well as possible, especially with those platforms that provide expat. I don't think there's a need to hold off on 1.3.21 at present though. Sorry I didn't notice this sooner... After the dust settles I'll adjust this section to deal with the new logic. -- =========================================================================== Jim Jagielski [|] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [|] http://www.jaguNET.com/ "A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will lose both and deserve neither"
