Hi folks, attached you'll find a patch for SVN-4655. The configure script was having problems finding zlib even with a prefix because it is located in /usr/local/lib/hpux32 on HP-UX (--with-zlib=/usr/local won't work). Using pkg-config solves the issue.
Tested with default and not default locations on FreeBSD 9.3 and HP-UX 11.31. [[[ Fix SVN-4655: configure: add zlib discovery through pkg-config Rework zlib.m4 in a way that is first searches zlib_prefix, if given, else search with pkg-config and ultimately in default locations traversed by the preprocessor and linker. * build/ac-macros/zlib.m4: Add a SVN_ZLIB_PKG_CONFIG function inspired by serf.m4 and traverse search by prefix, pkg-config and default locations ]]] The patch has been produced against trunk. Subversion client happily works now: $ file `which svn` /usr/local/bin/svn: ELF-32 executable object file - IA64 $ svn --version svn, Version 1.9.4 (r1740329) übersetzt am Sep 16 2016, um 22:35:03 auf ia64-hp-hpux11.31 Best regards, Michael Osipov
