I have a simple request. Would it be possible to provide a simple

The configure logic needed to generate config.h is not very complicated. I've had success with this simple recipe from luabuild:

local libs

local cfg = {HAVE_CRYPT=true, HAVE_CRYPT_H=true, VERSION = "5.1.20"}

if PLAT~='Darwin' then

    libs = 'crypt '

else

    cfg.HAVE_CRYPT_H = false

end

if PLAT=='Linux' then

    libs = libs .. 'rt'

end

cfg.HAVE_SYS_STATVS_H = find.include_path 'sys/statvfs.h' ~= nil

cfg.HAVE_STATVS = cfg.HAVE_SYS_STATVS_H ~= nil

luabuild.write_config_header('config.h',cfg)

luabuild.lua 'posix'

luabuild.test 'tests-posix.lua'

return luabuild.library {'posix_c',src="">

 

I'm sure that a straightforward bash configure script would do the job.

 

My other question is about -fpic no longer required?

It will definitely be required on 64-bit Linux systems
