Subject: [PATCH] partial fix for zlib cross compilation
Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2013 11:49:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131210104905.GA27631@jocasta.intra> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 364 bytes --]

zlib in its wisdom, doesn't use autoconf.  Hence there are special 
methods for cross compiling.  This patch implements one of these methods.
Certain targets will need further patches ...

Subject: [PATCH] gnu: compression: Fix cross-compilation of zlib.

* gnu/packages/compression.scm : Zlib uses a non-standard
  way of configuring for cross-compilation.  Thanks to Ludovic
  for showing me the correct way to fix this.
