I have a couple of comments/questions about libol. 1) configure ignores the CFLAGS enviroment variable. This affects packagers, in particular, the ones making specfiles (%configure defines CFLAGS as "$RPM_OPT_FLAGS"). I believe the correct solution is to patch configure.in. Something like this ---------- @@ -106,7 +106,7 @@ if test $enable_debug = "yes"; then CFLAGS="-Wall -g" else - CFLAGS="-Wall -O2" + CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -Wall" fi ---------- appears to work (but I'm not an autotools expert). 2) the libol makefile install the file make_class in the directory /usr/bin. Is this file required for building syslog-ng? The main reason I asking this is that make_file is installed with no interpreter. The first three lines are: ---------- #! \ -e main -s !# ---------- The original file - make_class.in - refers to something like "_SCSH_" but this gets replaced by an empty string.
