Hello guys,
as Udo already mentioned in the other thread we were able to
cross-compile Gnash and to let it run on our embedded board (looks
promising :).
However, it was not possible to cross-compile the source out of the box
and I had to modify configure (and macros) a bit. The main problem is
that configure always checks - independend if the dependency is used or
not - for a dependency and includes it into the Makefile if it gets
found. This is especially a problem when doing cross-compiling as it
finds and uses x86 libraries from the host pc.
I'm not an expert of autconf, so I don't know whats the normal way in
this case, but maybe it could be a solution to include in every macro a
switch (--enable-PKG=no) to disable the check. This is already done in
opengl.m4, but is not available in others.
Another point might be to only check for libraries/headers which are
really used and to make the checks dependend from the choosen renderer
and gui (why check for X11,SDL,GTK2,KDE/QT if the user has choosen AGG
as renderer and framebuffer as GUI?).
BTW: I found a typo in jpeg.m4, line 99:
ac_cv_path_jpeg_lib=`(cd ${with_jpeg_incl}; pwd)`
should be
ac_cv_path_jpeg_lib=`(cd ${with_jpeg_lib}; pwd)`
