Just curious: Why the choice of AFX_, and not something like LV_ for libvirt?
Because I plan to finish this up and send it down to autoconf-archive asap as it's not the first time I have to get something like this ;)
The shell expansion ${a#b} is not portable to Solaris /bin/sh. Is that a problem for libvirt, or are we Linux-centric enough to not care?
That's definitely a problem I didn't think about, I was expecting POSIX shell to support that, but I'll look for another way.
Underquoted; if the AC_MSG_ERROR were ever changed to contain a comma, then this would be passing an unintentional extra argument to AC_SEARCH_LIBS.
I have to double check that one but I think that if I were to quote that it wouldn't expand properly.
Is this something that would be worth wrapping in an AC_CACHE_CHECK, to avoid repeating the check if config.cache exists?
The inner check is already cached, so I don't think there is much need for adding one further cache… But this actually made me think that we might as well just use AC_SEARCH_LIB and rely on the value stored in the cache to begin with so I'll send a different version in a moment. -- Diego Elio Pettenò — “Flameeyes” http://blog.flameeyes.eu/ If you found a .asc file in this mail and know not what it is, it's a GnuPG digital signature: http://www.gnupg.org/
