I think this is a reasonably big deal. I tried a quick "autoreconf -ivf" which failed because the APR_FIND_APR macro was not distributed with lib4cxx and find_apr.m4 isn't installed in /usr/pkg/share/aclocal as part of NetBSD's apr package. > Using the ant build system would add a build dependency on Java, > which looks a littlebit heavy for me. Using ant isn't even an option for systems where Java is not available. I'll see what I can do to jump this hurdle so I can report whether there are any other problems beyond configure. --jtc -- J.T.
