First up, when I run a configure script and it hits the following line: if $_pkg_config --exists --print-errors $all_libav_libs ; then with $_pkg_config being 'pkg-config --static', dash throws the following error: ./configure: 6012: ./configure: pkg-config --static: not found I've tried adding brackets around the condition, but with no avail. Is there anything wrong with the syntax. Secondly, I decided to delve deeper with gdb and I can see dash calling: find_command('pkg-config --static') I would like to get some more info as to what in going on. IIRC, I saw in show.c, there was some sort for tracefile that dash to dump to. How do I enable this? Richard
