Yes, this one threw me for a loop yesterday when I ran my standard
configure line (which has included --with-dbfawk for months) and suddenly
all my dbfawk files stopped working.
I looked over configure.ac, and see that all of the AC_ARG_WITH usage in
configure.ac is backwards like this. Each such usage is set so that if
either --with-feature OR --without-feature is given, the non-default usage
is selected. That's because the "ACTION_IF_GIVEN" field of AC_ARG_WITH is not
using the "$withval" variable it has access to, and always sets the
non-default behavior if either --with-feature or --without-feature is selected.
Attached is a context diff for configure.ac off of this morning's anonymous
CVS. Patch configure.ac with it and re-run bootstrap, and the behaviors
of all the --with-feature and --without-feature will change to what you
expect it to be. Would someone with access to the developer CVS repository
please commit it?
