They are not even used by gengetopt itself during its execution.
It has been some time, but I am still doubtful about certain things. I
find that 'valgrind' is necessary to use 'make check' to test the
build. However what about the others, are they also necessary in some
section of the "./configure && make && make check && make install"
dance? It seems not. So why are they still being checked for in the
configure script, when run from the released tarball?
Happy hacking,
Debarshi
Hi there
do you mean gengen, bison, flex, etc.?
I could add the maintainer mode to the autotools; in that case, do you
know whether some checks can be enabled only in maintainer mode?
thanks
Lorenzo
