Apparently nobody reads what I'm posting, I'd rather go fishing :) I've already submitted a patch for this. I had no reply. The mkdir.m4 macro just _DOESN'T_WORK_. It always returns "no", while it should return "yes" under Windows. Then GNU patch would configure and build successfully, there's no need to patch anything else than the m4 macro. Manu. |
