#5040: Bug in NTL's ./configure
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: was | Owner: mabshoff
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: blocker | Milestone: sage-3.3
Component: build | Keywords:
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
If you build sage and the directory path contains a "-h" anywhere in it,
then NTL's perl DoConfig script displays a help message and exists. This
totally breaks building sage. The code at fault is:
{{{
if ($arg =~ '-h|help|-help|--help') {
system("more ../doc/config.txt");
exit;
}
}}}
In particular, PREFIX will get passed in and if your directory were, e.g,.
build-sage-help-me-foobar then Sage won't work.
