hmmm. this is indeed going to be a cross-compile problem. it will ALSO be a bootstrap problem. in that a totally efl-free system can't easily bootstrap itself as we need to compile edj files for things like elementary to work. so we have 2 situations. 1. cross-compile. this can't ever be fixed without ALSO having a native efl build to provide a working edje_cc. there is nothing much we can do here. BUT in this situation we CAN'T use the edje_cc we just compiled ever - we must use an externally provided edje_cc 2. native bootstrap. this is where we have an efl-free system needing to execute tools it just created (edje_cc) during build. i think we need to consider a "bootstrap" stage. literally this stage builds SOME of efl then installs it in $top_builddir and THEN it uses this to continue compiling the rest. otherwise we do complicate things - we need to move all edje tests, elementary themes and tests and so on totally out-of-tree. this means u can compile a working src tree that cant work at all due to missing edj files. this isn't pretty and i think it is out job to handle some kind of bootstrap stage. in the cross-compile case this bootstrap stage needs to be built for the os doing the compiling not the target arch. > Hi all, > > Today I've noticed that the following will break: > > cd edje; ./configure --prefix=/tmp/somedir > > It used to "work" before because it was using the system binary (ie: > /usr/bin/edje_cc) and we always tested with --prefix=/usr.
