[Buildroot] [autobuild.buildroot.net] Build results for 2012-09-01

[Stephan Hoffmann <sho@relinux.de>]

Hi Sam,

thank you for this hint. Unfortunatelly, I cannot get further, because
alsa-lib refuses to build after touching configure.in with lots of
messages like

> ../../lib/autoconf/lang.m4:194: AC_LANG_CONFTEST is expanded from...
> ../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2662: _AC_LINK_IFELSE is expanded from...
> ../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2679: AC_LINK_IFELSE is expanded from...
and

> ../../libtool: line 801: X--tag=CC: command not found
> ../../libtool: line 834: libtool: ignoring unknown tag : command not found

Seems alsa-lib isn't compatible with the version of autorools buildroot
uses.

Unfortunatelly, I am not familiar with autotools so I think I have to
give up at this point.

Can you or somebody else have a look at this and give a hint how I could
get further?

Kind regards

Stephan
