Hi,
I do not understand the rationale behind the behavior of
`LIGHTNING_CONFIGURE_IF_NOT_FOUND' in the case where `lightning.h' is
not found.
In the case where `lightning.h' is not found and `$host_cpu' denotes an
architecture supported by Lightning, the shell variable `lightning' is
set to `yes' and the `AC_CONFIG_LINKS' commands are run, no matter
whether a `lightning' and a `lightning/$cpu_subdir' directory are
available. This link-creation stage doesn't seem appropriate for
Lightning-using programs.
Instead, I'd rather use a more traditional macro like:
LIGHTNING_CONFIG([ACTION-IF-FOUND], [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND would typically be invoked whenever `lightning.h' is
not found.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Ludovic.
