There are a lot of packages like this that come this way from upstream Options that have worked for me 1. modify the configure script and/or makefiles to not run the test program 2. In a few cases i complied gcc for my ARM platform, then compiled natively.. I think perl was one of these.. It took hours to compile.. -- Karl. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
