Re: Can't run configure

You know.. sometimes I amaze myself when I send off something like
below.. yet freak out when people do the same to me.. ;)(feel free to
beat the newbie!) anyway hpux 11.20.. I installed the GNU gcc and make..
I can copy the config.log.. but it is a little to much.. besides that
its pretty stand HP stuff.. below is the output of the find you sent..:

Well, I've not had any trouble configuring and building from source and
aside
from a legacy binary install used briefly I have only used postgresql
built
from source.

Perhaps you could provide slightly more information, such as the OS and
what
has been installed on it regarding support for development, like header
files,
and then may be someone stands a chance of helping.

In general I would say that if you need help it is better to give
slightly more
information than you think is needed. Excessive amounts is perhaps bad
but
slightly too much may well provide information that you will be asked
for
before any progress can be made.

For instance, I don't know much about the configure process but without
looking, and I'm not going to until there's sufficient information to
make me
think I stand a chance of determining the fault, I'm going to ask you to
do:

find /usr -name \*\.h | xargs grep accept
