[rrd-users] Possible issue with rrdtool configure script and Perl cc compiler variable

[Sean O'Neill]

I might have found an issue with the perl -V cc value and the rrdtool 
configure script.  I recently installed the perl 5.8.0 binary for Solaris 9 
from www.sunfreeware.com.  It reports its cc value (from perl -V) as 'gcc 
-B/usr/ccs/bin'.

The configure script that comes with rrdtool 1.0.40 has a bit of grief 
about this.  The following lines have problems with this cc value as the -B 
switch and it value in the cc output for perl -V messes up the if statement 
below.

PROBLEMCC=`$PERL -e 'use Config; exit 0 if -x $Config{cc}; map {if (-x 
"$_/$Config{cc}"){exit 0}} split /:/, $ENV{PATH};print $Config{cc}'`
if test x$PROBLEMCC != x; then

To get rrdtool to installed on my system I had to change PROBLEMCC to 
PROBLEMCC=''.  RRDtool installed correctly after this.  I didn't check the 
entire script for problem with the perl cc value.

Has anyone else noticed this ?
