Description Norbert Palluch 2003-05-23 11:38:44 UTC

When emerging ntp the configure-script is called with only '--build=${CHOST}'.
There should also be a '--enable-parse-clocks' for compiling support for these
clocks/receivers into ntpd.
I have such a cheap DCF-receiver for the serial port and needed that clock-type.
The workaround is to change the ebuild-script by hand - until the next 
'emerge sync'.

passing --enable-parse-clocks to the configure script only adds additional
support correct ?  it does not change anything else ?
