Hi Gabor,

indeed! I can just follow my intention to follow general logic of:

--with-<cmd> -> @<cmd>Cmd@

but you are right RANLIB logic is a little bit more comlex in aclocal.m4 so it uses different variables (REAL_RANLIB_CMD/RANLIB_CMD) than "usual" RanlibCmd.

So if you care about one useless AC_SUBST(RanlibCmd), please send the patch or if you do have commit access just fix that. As I said, intention was to follow usual logic although in this case non-functional....

Thanks, Karel

Hi Karel,

I am missing a use of @RanlibCmd@, is this intentional?

Cheers,

Gabor

commit 05e160e36527f6f36f997d7aa56f0cbe4cbb50a3 Author: Karel Gardas Date: Sun Feb 9 21:58:05 2014 +0100

add --with-ar and --with-ranlib configure parameters

Both --with-ar and --with-ranlib are usable on non-GNU/Linux systems where GNU tools are usually installed (or possible to install), but not into standard location nor with standard name. Tested on Solaris 10.
