[patch] Patch against configure.ac to test for who provides argp

test-for-argp.patch (text/plain), 1.29 KB, created by Anthony Basile on 2012-05-27 01:16:58 UTC

On glibc systems, argp is provided by libc.  However, on
uclibc and other systems which lack argp in their C library,
argp might be provided by a stand alone library, libargp.
This patch adds tests to the build system to find who provides
argp.
