syntax error near unexpected token `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GTK,

[Dalibor Topic]

Howdy,

I ocassionally try out classpath's configury mechanism, and it always 
breaks down on me, so I must be doing something really 'special' to it.

Since I'm only interested in building the java part of classpath, and 
not the associated native parts, I was wondering how to configure it to 
do that. I've tried

../classpath/configure --with-jikes --disable-gtk-peer --disable-jni

but that tried to execute that PKG_CHECK_MODULES thing, whatever it is. 
It's not part of autotools, so autoreconf did not put it in there :(

Is there a way to do what I'd like to do, or do I have to write my own 
build-script [1]? Or could we just include the m4 code classpath depends 
on in the tree, given that these files are not generated?

They apparently need to be dug out from the web somewhere, where search 
engines do not dare to go :)

cheers,

[1] build.xml would seem like the obvious choice for PKG_CHECK_MODULES 
challenged users like me :)
