Hi Kenton, Thanks for your hints. But there's still one thing not clear for me: I don't need the protoc compiler as powerpc executable, just the runtime libs. Is there a way to give an option (build-target) to configure or make, to build just theese? I didn't see one after having a quick look on configure and the generated Makefile. Or will the --with-protoc option have this effect?
