Setup: Compiling Livid/OMS from CVS - www.linuxvideo.org on RH 7.0 Steps to Repeat: 1. Checkout current cvs (3pm, 14th October) 2. Run autogen.sh from the oms tree. Description: configure fails to detect mmap as working. tracing into the autoconf test shows undefined references to getpagesize/read/write/open/umask/rand etc. (See config.log) The autoconf test in /usr/share/autoconf/acspecific.m4 does not appear to contain the correct set of header includes for an error-free test of mmap functionality. RH7 appears to need at least stdlib.h (for rand) and sys/stat.h (for umask) added to the headers used in the test. The autoconf with RH7 also doesn't actually include unistd.h because as part of the earlier OMS configure, HAVE_GETPAGESIZE is defined. This breaks the test in acspecific too - unistd.h is needed on RH7 for write/read/close/etc. Cheers, Mark
Thank you for the report and sorry for the slow response. [This is already fixed in autoconf-2.50.] The following patch seems to solve the problem in 2.13.
