Hi, all. I don't know these autotool, libtool, etc stuff at all. It seems multilib is a cute(??) monster, and I've heard that multilib of Gentoo linux (I'm Gentoo user) it is not genuine, but I can't tell if it is correct.
Gentoo is a distro which doesn't distribute binary, but every user has to compile all from source, and configure is automated. In Gentoo multilib case, --libdir=/usr/lib64 is supplied by the system conf, so configure is run like this: * econf: updating librep-0.17.3/config.sub with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.sub /configure --prefix=/usr --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --prefix=/usr/ --without-gmp --without-ffi --with-readline --libdir=/usr/lib64 --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu See near the end of the whole line. I haven't give any personal options. What I fixed in librep was, (my memory's already vague;), *not* auto detection of /usr/lib, but to make configure correctly listen to --libdir option by user, by adding 'libd...@libdir@' in Makefile.in (It had ignored, or responded in wrong way.) Auto detection should be done, if possible, by other tools. Sorry I can't help. > Teika said it works now for him (or her?). I'm male. 'Teika kazura' is a plant name, and can't be human name. ;) But Teika, or Fujiwara no Teika is a great Japanese poet of 13 century. (Wikipedia's arcicle on Teika is overwhelming. I dont' feel like reading it.) But Teika's really prolific, and his work is not limited to poetry. 来ぬ人を待つ帆の浦の夕凪に焼くや藻塩の身もこがれつつ Ko nu hito o matsu ho no ura no yuunagi ni yaku ya moshiho no mi mo kogare tsutsu. Waiting for the person (him?) I know who won't come, feeling like myself burning, like kelp salt (1) at sea shore of sails, sunset calm. (Japanese traditional way of making salt is the repetition of to spread kelp, pour sea water on it, and burn to concentrate. But it'd been a favorite prop for poems, and I doubt if Teika has ever seen actual kelp salt making.) But a poem can't be translated, as always. Es muss sein. Regards, Teika (Teika kazura)
