also, it might be nice for configure (or some earlier step) to determine that the required APR foo wasn't found and balk at that step. or wherever makes sense to those more familiar with the build system than I am. at the moment, since I don't have apr binaries in my path the first I discover there is something wrong is during make.
Huh?
% ./configure checking for chosen layout... Apache checking for working mkdir -p... yes checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin7.5.0 checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin7.5.0 checking target system type... powerpc-apple-darwin7.5.0
Configuring Apache Portable Runtime library ...
checking for APR... no configure: error: APR not found. Please read the documentation. %
So, I'm not at all sure what you mean here. -- justin
