From 54c7df81f3e5f81cb91646acaf82074a3a6be3b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cory Fields Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2014 12:19:11 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] build: Fix boost build on some platforms When the libpath doesn't line up with the value from config.sub, we don't find the correct path to boost's libs. This adds a hack to try another path before giving up. Should close #3219. --- src/m4/ax_boost_base.m4 | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/m4/ax_boost_base.m4 b/src/m4/ax_boost_base.m4 index e025a7e1c..3f24d5ddc 100644 --- a/src/m4/ax_boost_base.m4 +++ b/src/m4/ax_boost_base.m4 @@ -112,6 +112,12 @@ if test "x$want_boost" = "xyes"; then ;; esac + dnl some arches may advertise a cpu type that doesn't line up with their + dnl prefix's cpu type.
