Hello Mikey,
> Have you tried doing "make clean" first?
That is not the point.
The point is that it is a bug that configure is exiting because
I define --enable-xyz when the xyz dependency is not available instead
of to disable the extension and continue the configury. And it is a
bug that configure is doing nothing about wrong definitions as in my
case, where xsl requires dom to be build and there is no warning if
you define with-xsl but not enable-dom, nor does it define enable-dom
by itself for the average dummy user that I am proud to be.
The configury of this package is buggy but they state that they are
proud to have abandoned automake, I don't wonder that it was
neccessary to do so because there seems to care nobody about improving
this system.
I need to define a hundred flags to configure instead of saying
--enable-all=shared or s.th. similar to get all possible shared
modules to be compiled.
