I have a question on universal builds of fink libraries, such as libgmp, libjpeg, etc.

1) My assumption is that different projects are in different states. (i.e. not all fink packages have been built as universal) Looking at a couple of libraries, that appears to be the case.

2) I need to build several libraries as universal. I would gladly work with folks that are autoconf-savvy to figure out the necessary changes and submit those to the package maintainer. In short, I'm looking for help to resolve errors like (this is an attempt at building libgmp direct from source):

LDFLAGS=-Wl,-syslibroot,/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
CFLAGS=-O -g -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch i386 - arch ppc

anagram:~/Development/external_libs/libgmp wade$ ./configure -- disable-dependency-tracking
checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin8.4.0
checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin8.4.0
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for mawk... no
checking for gawk... no
checking for nawk... no
checking for awk... awk
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking compiler gcc -O -g -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/ MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch i386 -arch ppc ... yes
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables


Is it appropriate for me to ask for help on this list? fink-devel seems more appropriate, but I'm neither a developer or a maintainer of fink, so I didn't know whether subscribing there was appropriate.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks,

Wade
