Running ./configure --with-alsa and --with-jack fails to configure with either

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Running this command to configure amsynth 1.5.1 before compiling:
sudo ./configure --with-alsa --with-jack

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Still produces a config file with the lines
| Build with ALSA support............................... : no
| Build with JACK support............................... : no

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Amsynth 1.5.1
On both:
Linux Mint 17
Crunchbang Waldorf

I have fixed this by installing the following packages:
libjack-jackd2-dev libasound2-dev

It might be worthwhile making this crop up as an error when running ./configure

Thanks for the feedback.

While I agree that this is somewhat confusing, it's really a deficiency in 
autoconf, and I don't want to start patching around things like that.

Patches are welcome, though!
