I would specifically advise against checking the platform, and instead do something vendor-neutral like the gcc -print-search-dirs check above. That way anything you implement will also work for other vendors who adopt multiarch. If you *must* check the platform, $(lsb_release -is) is a better check, but lsb_release is not included by default on Debian systems and this issue is going to turn up on Debian too soon enough. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/739693 Title: Configure does not find libs in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
