This problem manifests itself on stallo, where a newer version of saxon can't be installed in /usr or /opt without help from already overworked sysadmins.
The problem is that an older version of saxon is found /usr/share. The version of it is checked and found to be too old.
After that configure does not look for saxon in $HOME/lib, where current versions of saxon exist.
It seems that configure looks for saxon in this order: /opt/local /usr $HOME/lib
The order should be $HOME/lib/ /opt/local /usr
Here are relevant messages from configure in $GTHOME/langs/sms on stallo
checking for /opt/local/share/java/saxon9he.jar... no checking for /usr/share/java/Saxon-HE.jar... no checking for /usr/share/java/saxon.jar... yes checking whether the Saxon JAR is at least 8.0... no - 6.5.5 checking whether we can enable xslt2 transformations... no
configure: WARNING: You have XML source files, but XML transformation to LexC is disabled. Please check the output of configure to locate any problems.
This is the content if $HOME/lib $ ls $HOME/lib libcg3.a pkgconfig saxonb-9.1.0.8.jar saxonb-xpath.jar libcg3.so saxon9he.jar saxonb.jar saxon.jar
