[libXau] cannot compile libXau-0.1.1 on aix: wrong compiler option '-include'

Thu Mar 25 05:07:27 PST 2004

Hi everybody,

When attempting to build libXau-0.1.1 on aix 4.3.1 with IBM/ANSI-C
compiler VAC 5.0.7,
I got this error

make  all-am
make[1]: Entering directory `/local/temp/src/libXau-0.1.1'
source='AuDispose.c' object='AuDispose.lo' libtool=yes \
depfile='.deps/AuDispose.Plo' tmpdepfile='.deps/AuDispose.TPlo' \
depmode=aix /bin/sh ./depcomp \
/bin/sh ./libtool --mode=compile cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.  
-I/local/include -include config.h -I/local/include   -g -c -o
AuDispose.lo `test -f 'AuDispose.c' || echo './'`AuDispose.c
 cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I/local/include -include config.h
-I/local/include -g -c -M AuDispose.c  -DPIC
cc: 1501-218 file config.h contains an incorrect file suffix
make[1]: *** [AuDispose.lo] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/local/temp/src/libXau-0.1.1'
make: *** [all] Error 2

-I/local/include -include config.h -I/local/include   -g -c -o
                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
atually '-include' is not a valid compiler option

FWIW, here's the patches I used to remove it from the Makefile
generation

Hope this helps
José
