From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Daniel.Thibault@drdc-rddc.gc.ca (Thibault, Daniel) Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:20:59 -0500 Subject: [lttng-dev] The disable-libtool-linkdep-fixup configure option Message-ID: <3CA1A65C03C1A34C81BBC6272782E6969BDD0C@valcartierex01.valcartier.drdc-rddc.gc.ca> > > The default value of the option is 'yes' (re: configure.ac), which means the fixup is applied. Setting the option to another value, such as 'no', means the fixup is not applied. > > Why then is the option named *disable*-libtool-linkdep-fixup? Shouldn't it be named *enable*-libtool-linkdep-fixup instead? > >Because the option is enabled by default on all systems. This is to facilitate cross-compilation on Debian/Ubuntu systems. > > Christian If you had to compare the following two command lines, which one would you say disabled the fixup? ./configure --disable-libtool-linkdep-fixup=yes ./configure --disable-libtool-linkdep-fixup=no The first line is the current default, and it leaves the fixup enabled (right?). That's why I suspect enable-libtool-linkdep-fixup would be a more meaningful name. Daniel U.
