Hi all.
One of the problems with building on Windows is that the configure script
doesn't work well.
Q 1.
By inspecting configure.in, I notice that a check should be done for rpclib
in the XDR part as follows:
XDRLIB=
if test -z "${XDRLIB}"; then
AC_CHECK_LIB(sun, xdr_int, XDRLIB=-lsun)
fi
if test -z "${XDRLIB}"; then
AC_CHECK_LIB(nsl, xdr_int, XDRLIB=-lnsl)
fi
if test -z "${XDRLIB}"; then
AC_CHECK_LIB(rpclib, xdr_int, XDRLIB=-lrpclib)
fi
AC_SUBST(XDRLIB)
As I haven't been able to get autoconf to work on my computer, could someone
please do this and check it in?
Q 2.
Also, I happen to keep my X headers and libraries in /usr/local/X11r6.4
which doesn't get picked up by configure. Maybe what I really need to do is
move them elsewhere rather than expecting configure to do this.
Is there a recommended location to put them on Windows?
Cheers
Mike Thomas.

Hi Mike,
i'll check in the XDR part.
Will this suffice? I had the problem that the sunrpc packet is installed
under /usr/local/{include|lib} instead of /usr/{include|lib}.
For the headers: I think that you should leave the headers and libraries
as installed and edit manually the src/CMD/head/head.* file unless this
is implemented correctly with configure.

Hi Andreas.
Will this suffice? I had the problem that the sunrpc packet is installed
under /usr/local/{include|lib} instead of /usr/{include|lib}.
Thanks and yes, I just installed it in /usr/{include|lib} to stop that
problem. It would be nice to get configure to look in
/usr/local/{include|lib} as well though/
For the headers: I think that you should leave the headers and libraries
as installed and edit manually the src/CMD/head/head.* file unless this
is implemented correctly with configure.
I'm trying to avoid having to do it by hand all the time, it's what
configure should be doing rather than me - just call me lazy!

Thats what configure is for. But with grass it is complicate to
implement this.
We are working to get configure up'n'running. But there are a lot of
problems to figure out on Win32. See my other mails.
If you expirience other problems (or find solutions on Win32!), please
mail again to the list.

Andreas
