I should have read the manual before posting. http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Changed-Directory-Variables.html " In some cases, however, the checks may not be able to detect that a suitable initialization of datarootdir is in place, or they may fail to detect that such an initialization is necessary in the output file. If, after auditing your package, there are still spurious configure warnings about datarootdir, you may add the line AC_DEFUN([AC_DATAROOTDIR_CHECKED]) to your configure.ac to disable the warnings." _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
