Re: [Erlyaws-list] Build problems

Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

I made the adjustment to configure that you suggested.
It made it past that point and completed configuration.
It worked.

I had some other problem when doing make. But I'll have to look at that 
when I get back to that machine, later this evening.

I can contact the Debian Maintainer to correct this if that would be 
best, unless some here would prefer to do it. I guess he just needs to 
remove the single quotes in his setup?

Thanks again.
