./configure fails on Ubuntu 24.04

It seems this compiled fine on 22.04 without libHacl_Hash_SHA2.a also so maybe something changed in the configure file?

Have you really run ./autogen as said in my response to your previous ticket #301?

The output you quoted is not the one that would be generated by the current Git source.

For the record, this issue was fixed last February in INN (https://github.com/InterNetNews/inn/commit/b3abd6bbc6049385ec6130039f802da5ba5c6503) following Debian bug report #1061315 related to Ubuntu builds. This was the experimental Noble version at that time (released as Ubuntu 24.04). This is exactly the version on which you faced the issue.

As the fix is done on a file used at configure time, ./autogen and ./configure need being run after git pull so as to actually have the fix.

See #295.
