[Qemacs-devel] config.mak problem

[Ken Beesley]

RE:  config.mak problem


I invoked 
J'ai invoqué

./configure --prefix=/opt/gnu/bin

and got the following config.mak file:
qui a généré le fichier suivant:

# Automatically generated by configure - do not modify
prefix=/opt/gnu/bin
MAKE=make
CC=gcc
GCC_MAJOR=3
HOST_CC=gcc
AR=ar
STRIP=strip -s -R .comment -R .note
CFLAGS=-O2
LDFLAGS=
EXTRALIBS=-lm
-n VERSION=
0.3.1

CONFIG_NETWORK=yes
CONFIG_X11=yes
CONFIG_XV=yes
CONFIG_HTML=yes
CONFIG_DLL=yes
CONFIG_PNG_OUTPUT=yes


which has problems at lines 12 and 13.
où les lignes 12 et 13 ont des problèmes.  

Here's the code in 'configure' that generated these lines.
Voici le code dans 'configure' qui a généré ces lignes.

echo "EXTRALIBS=$extralibs" >> config.mak
echo -n "VERSION=" >>config.mak
head $source_path/VERSION >>config.mak
echo "" >>config.mak


The intent of "echo -n "VERSION=" >>config.mak" is obviously to output
the line without a newline at the end.  But this -n flag
is for _csh_ rather than sh.  For sh, I think it should be

echo "VERSION=\c" >>config.mak

There's another example of "echo -n ..." just below this that
should also be changed (I think).
