" unless ($AUTORUN); println $MARCH unless ($AUTORUN); unless ($MARCH =3D~ /x86_64/i || $MARCH =3D~ /i?86/i) { println "configure: error: unsupported architecture '$OSTYPE'"; exit 1; } and then at 292: print "checking for supported architecture... " unless ($AUTORUN); my $BITS; if ($MARCH =3D~ /x86_64/i) { $BITS =3D 64; } elsif ($MARCH eq 'fat86') { $BITS =3D '32_64'; } elsif ($MARCH =3D~ /i?86/i) { $BITS =3D 32; } else { die "unrecognized Architecture '$ARCH'"; } println "$MARCH ($BITS bits) is supported" unless ($AUTORUN); so it looks like x86_64 and i686 are pretty much hardcoded in. > Is it okay to take out mips and arm from the supported architectures? I'm curious if they would build with modifications to the configure files, but I don't have a machine to test it on. > Andreas >=20 --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --Sig_/oXnRA.jH./VRMwnG7Zhtx6u Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJWIrJQAAoJEPTB05F+rO6Tg1EP/2qzO2tYEr9/qidfSGLqu+F3 ehYyfoqmYzq/Jqmx1f9A+fOQpWsd2gS2Tw+cWfmszf0YnzZeBpfGDTgUY0i3FEJn IwF1/HYwDxILDMwoRijtgvxgLPdWP8OGKx6lLVmYnc0WFF4NriPLnjmyzIiXiUTZ BWSacRSj4lZKBcBXmkV45DbLCJxoCmkk4OWY1mRnPy3xw7LnHg3WI33gZBWvy9yc /xk4ee5hC8KgXOZf4fzFJPR5Vb1LGdka2NPxKavsdSEn27vXsXOAIZrLIzNjt8wB j16S9J53iSeK/h14uHFlQMoQqBiF2W16mZ8JZXbTCgQvHD2s7piGkUdh7bFWd/t6 m6HOSz1Zqpaz1ZymkvwSVE0cKJxjU8yUjjXELEHIvI+FEwE5OOLx8ioj/Lmckmum ZXvAWKPPguCtuqM+FyH5lo7xeHSQVuwMTRK8/ZxciIJUh0lIg2sVi4+duo3e8ZWx CuDsUMsSPkcEMemjqC6MP4AYOApiytnGoszP62LKYtgWgbw2iH2vSBIMIAw31Hrm VKajsXpIHfVCcv4fJ5hCxz/DNGDEe5kJudZz4U0O5ja4iqrfU5/PqUdYjQVajatZ AQfpIuCRwV8pj3HE9JiuOH8IEmoYVU9hLNFZ/ObOe+6ZIyr9RKZEXbctnEgtGoPc MUP85otvNmD0Exxv//JC =kQlj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/oXnRA.jH./VRMwnG7Zhtx6u--
