Description Vincent Berger 2004-12-08 04:30:13 UTC

I tried to build shared-mime-info version 0.15 on my AIX system.
I used the $CFLAGS variable to specify a specific compiler option (I use the IBM
xlc compiler version 6.0).

It looks like the content of the variable is used in the configure script but is
not used in the Makefile.am file.

I made the following patch to change it but I'm not sure this is the way you'd
like to do it :

What do you think about the problem and the patch ?

Vincent.

Fixed in CVS, I used a different fix though: instead of setting CFLAGS in
Makefile.am, I set update_mime_database_CFLAGS.
