And then package maintainers hate you because they have to patch your shell scripts when building for a non-standard platform or environment. Good job.

- nwmcsween 12y agoYou do know autotools uses shell scripts as well, you don't need to patch anything if you use posix sh.
- q3k 12y agoYou do if your custom shell scripts do not allow some of these not-so-standard features (that autotools and other mature build systems provide): - cross-compiling - extra flags (ie. for hardening) for various commands - non-standard install location - non-standard compiler location - skipping/adding steps (strip/nostrip) ...
- nwmcsween 12y agoAlmost all of those are not part of a 'configure' check when you pass cflags, cc, prefix its just passed to make Cross compiler working have no place in a build system.
