Does anybody have a patch or a kludge trick so that I am able to cross-compile climm-0.6.4 with gnutls-2.12.5?

I am trying to cross-compile climm-0.6.4 to windows under Ubuntu with the following command:

./configure --host=i686-pc-mingw32 --enable-ssl=gnutls

and I get this error message:

**checking for libgnutls-config... no
checking for libgnutls - version >= 0.8.8... no
*** The libgnutls-config script installed by LIBGNUTLS could not be found
*** If LIBGNUTLS was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the LIBGNUTLS_CONFIG environ开发者_运维知识库ment variable to the
*** full path to libgnutls-config.**

After some research on the Internet I found a hint here:

The package's ./configure script is trying to invoke libgnutls-config and/or libgnutls-extra-config to search for the gnutls library. Newer versions of gnutls do not ship these scripts anymore.

and I am using gnutls-2.12.5

Does anybody have a patch or a kludge trick so that I am able to cross-compile climm-0.6.4 with gnutls-2.12.5?

Thank you in advance!

cheers

Try the --with-libgnutls-prefix=PFX option to the configure script telling where the library is.

Other option in to set the environment variable LIBGNUTLS_CONFIG to a program that outputs just the parameters you need to compile/link the library.

Update: Try the following script, name it mygnutls_config:

#!/bin/bash
if [ "$1" == "--version" ]
then
    shift
    EXTRA="--modversion"
else
    EXTRA=""
fi
pkg-config gnutls $EXTRA "$@"

And then

$ chmod a+x mygnutls_config
$ LIBGNUTLS_CONFIG=`pwd`'/mignutls_config' ./configure --enable-ssl=gnutls

note that for this to work you need pkg-config to detect the crosscompilation configuration, not the native one. So you may need the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR environment variable to point to the directory where the appropriate gnutls.pc file is.
