Thanks @liamstask. That was always a bit of a poor attempt at determining if we are configuring from a distribution tarball or directly from source code control. There is probably a better way.
I created a PR to correct this. https://github.com/adrian-thurston/colm/pull/124
Hi - I was attempting to cross compile (via buildroot)
colm
as a dependency forragel
, itself a dependency of another project, and ran into the following error during configure:checking for ./DIST... configure: error: cannot check for file existence when cross compiling
in the meantime, i'm just patching this locally to avoid this specific check in order to determine whether to build the manual, but would be nice to support this.
