Specifying `--prefix` when cross-compiling about bc

[firasuke]

Yup, the new release solved the issue.

Thanks for your time and effort!

This looks like a bug in configure.sh. However, I need to know now to track it down.

Can you tell me what the host system is, what the target system is, what the host compiler is, and what the target compiler is?

[firasuke]

The host system architecture tuple is x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu and the target architecture tuple is x86_64-linux-musl.

The host compiler HOSTCC=gcc and the target compiler is CC=x86_64-linux-musl-gcc.

I thought this will might help narrow down the cause.

The last known working version that I tried using the same configuration flags and recipe file is version 5.2.5, so my guess would be that the change happened after that release, possibly with the latest 6.0 release.

[firasuke]

I think I found the faulty commit.

[gavinhoward]

I think you did too.

That commit appears to have been made as exploration; I should have added more to the commit message. Nevertheless, it appears to not be necessary anymore because I tested the FreeBSD port without those changes, and it worked fine.

So I committed 2b65eb2 to erase the rest of that commit. Can you pull and test it?

[firasuke]

I can confirm that this indeed 2b65eb2 fixed the issue.

Can you release this fix in a new bugfix version?

[gavinhoward]

Wonderful!

I'll release a bug fix version as soon as I have confirmation that this fix does not break FreeBSD. I hope that will be soon.

[gavinhoward]

Release 6.0.3 is out. I hope it fixes your issue.

If it doesn't, please feel free to reopen.
