[id3lib-devel] ./configure problem in mingw32

[Frederick E. G. I. <fgr...@gm...>]

in running ./configure in mingw32/msys, I get the following:
.
.
.
checking for truncate... no
configure: error: Missing a vital function for id3lib

I tried to edit configure.in to replace
> AC_CHECK_FUNCS(
>   truncate                      \
>   ,,AC_MSG_ERROR([Missing a vital function for id3lib])
> )
with
> AC_CHECK_FUNCS(truncate)
and I even tried removing those 4 lines altogether (both suggestions I found
in the archives of this list),
but neither fixed the configure error.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
