Actually no, that's not the problem since it checks for gcc availability. The problem is that those directories are system directories and we should not add them to the library search path when configuring a external library thorn. They should be added at the end of the linking command line, after configuration of all external libraries are finished, to avoid linking to a system library when indeed we want to link to the external library shipped with ET (or already installed elsewhere). For example we might add /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu to HDF5 library search path but other system libraries might be there and then be picked against our will. Finding out the host system include and library standard directories and then adding them at the end of the compilation and linking command lines, respectively, is a solution that should be worked out after the release. Cheers, Bruno. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.einsteintoolkit.org/mailman/listinfo/users
