moin,

i tested the new config system (but not very thoroughly)
and it seems to work fine.

the current autogen.sh does not work for me, though.
i have to change it to:

autoheader
autoconf
automake -a
chmod +x configure

then it works.


and i found another bug in libdbi (and reported it) and added
a workaround. at the moment, libdbi cannot work with NULL
password. but mysql-docs say, to login without a giving
a password requires setting password to NULL. fortunately,
setting the password to "" works as well, so i changed the
default DFLT_DBI_PASS accordingly, until they have fixed this.

maybe it would be good to decide a minimum required version
of libdbi and have configure test it.

could you add configure switches

- --with-dbi-libs
and
- --with-dbi-include
?

its nice to be able to specify these separately.


tty, axel
