I’m trying to make the UnicodePlugin for an x86 linux. You’d think that would be simple enough but in fact the config fails because it has a hard-coded ARAM path in the UnicodePlugin/acinlude.m4 file - probably my fault from a couple of years ago as it happens.<br>
<br>
So, add the x86 path (for the glibconfig.h file; I imagine there is a way to make that get worked out automagically - see the CPPFLAGS line in platforms/unix/plugins/<wbr>UnicodePlugin/acinclude.m4) and rebuild. Except the mvm script doesn’t re-run the configuration build. OK, delete the dratted config.h to force it to re-run autoconf.<br>
<br>
Sigh, nothing doing. No change.<br>
<br>
Look in platforms/unix/config and try `make`. Fails at <a href="http://configure.ac" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">configure.ac</a> line 201. Which is weird because it *must* have worked not so many hours ago when I did a completely scratch load of the source tree on this particular machine.<br>
