Here is the output.

I don't have access to such configuration currently, but if it is elinks-0.14 or GIT version you can try build with meson. Install it first. Sample build script:

#!/bin/sh

rm -rf /tmp/builddir
meson /tmp/builddir -Dbrotli=true \
-Dtre=false \
-Dutf-8=true \
-Dtrue-color=true \
-Dgopher=true \
-Dspidermonkey=false \
-Dbzlib=true \
-Dlzma=false \
-Dperl=false \
-Dzlib=true \
-Dbacktrace=false \
-Dcombining=true \
-Dbittorrent=true \
-D88-colors=true \
-D256-colors=true \
-Dlibdom=false \
-Dopenssl=false \
-Dgnutls=true \
-Dlibevent=true \
-Dlibev=false \
-Dterminfo=false \
-Dcgi=true \
-Druby=false \
-Dsm-scripting=false \
-Dpython=false \
-Dzstd=true \
-Dwithdebug=false \
-Dluapkg='luajit' \
-Dguile=false \
-Dgpm=false \
-Dprefix=$HOME \
-Dx=false

meson compile -C /tmp/builddir

Hello FoundOne,

could've been by different autoconfig files. I'm unsure whether it could help, but try followg: automake --version (e.g. 1.16.1) cp /usr/share/automake-1.16/config.sub ./config/config.sub cp /usr/share/automake-1.16/config.guess ./config/config.guess and try configure again. Find automake in /usr/share according to the version You have on Your system.

Best regards

After updating the config.guess in the sources with the one provided in the automake or autoconf package (on Manjaro / Arch Linux ARM), it will configure itself fine, without any errors.
