Thread: RE: [HACKERS] Re: [QUESTIONS] Configuration problems in PostgreSQ L 6.3.2 on Linux-ELF

Yes, it is. But Marc, you made a small mistake. In configure you have to
check for template/linux-elf not linux-elf:

*** configure.orig      Tue Apr 21 14:47:20 1998
--- configure   Tue Apr 21 14:48:06 1998
***************
*** 670,676 ****

  echo "$ac_t""$TEMPLATE" 1>&6

! if test "$TEMPLATE" = "linux-elf"; then
        LINUX_ELF=yes
  else
        LINUX_ELF=no
--- 670,676 ----

  echo "$ac_t""$TEMPLATE" 1>&6

! if test "$TEMPLATE" = "template/linux-elf"; then
        LINUX_ELF=yes
  else
        LINUX_ELF=no

Also ecpg/lib/Makefile.in is not updated.

How about we make linux-elf the default, rename the template files and
check for linux-aout? That way, I wouldn't have to worry about my own
linux-elf-debug template, or the linux-elf-sparc template.
