15:25.52starseekergrr - why isn't tkhtml3 using the local tk?
15:26.04``Erikbrlcad: japan house?
15:33.16brlcad``Erik: i would, but too far out, won't get there in time
15:48.36starseekerSomehow, ac_cv_c_tkh=${ac_cv_c_tkh=/usr/include} is creeping into the configure result
15:52.00claymorebrlcad:  are you coding & commiting from you cell phone again?  Mad skillz i tell ya....
15:54.30starseekeranybody on a systerm where they have a toplevel config.cache.* handy?
16:23.32starseekerarrrrrrgh.  How can ac_cv_c_tclh be present in the config cache but not have any code that's referring to it in configure
16:29.23brlcadclaymore: I can/have, but not at the moment .. do I need to be? :)
16:31.03starseekerhelp
16:32.59starseekermake distcheck is failing here:  In file included from ../../../../src/other/tkhtml3/src/html.h:62, from ../../../../src/other/tkhtml3/src/cssdynamic.c:2:
16:33.03starseeker/usr/include/tk.h:23:3: error: #error Tk 8.4 must be compiled with tcl.h from Tcl 8.4
16:33.23starseekerObviously, with enable-all on, it shouldn't be getting /usr/include/tk.h in the first place
16:34.08starseekerThe configure options, when examined, show that /usr/include is substituted where the tk/generic include should be
16:34.39starseekertracing this leads back to the config.cache.* file, which does indeed have ac_cv_c_tkh=/usr/include
16:35.41starseekerBut I can't for the life of me figure out why ac_cv_c_tclh is correctly set and ac_cv_c_tkh is not - the ac_cv_c_tkconfig variable is actually set correctly
16:37.27starseekerThere is no direct assignment of either of those variables anywhere in the configure logic - I can't figure out how/where they're being generated and stuck in config.cache
16:56.10claymorebrlcad:  chuck just dropped by and left some donuts for ya.  just so you know ;)
17:03.37*** join/#brlcad clock_ (n=clock@77-56-89-6.dclient.hispeed.ch)
17:07.09``Erikobviously, tk.h should not be in /usr/include
17:07.10``Erik:D
17:08.07starseeker``Erik:  thanks
17:08.21starseeker``Erik:  Do you happen to have a config.cache file handy?
17:09.56``Erika few
17:10.08starseekerWhat does your value for that variable look like?
17:10.36``Erikwhich os and which variable?
17:10.51``Erikac_cv_c_t{k,cl}h ?
17:11.00starseekerac_cv_c_tkh
17:11.35``Erikac_cv_c_tkh=${ac_cv_c_tkh=/usr/brlcad/HEAD/include}
17:11.49starseekerIs that with an enable-all configure?
17:12.11``Erikno, it's "configure --enable-optimized --prefix=/usr/brlcad/HEAD"
17:12.25starseekerare you using system tcl/tk?
17:12.49``Eriknah, it builds
17:13.00starseekerso that variable setting makes no sense at all
17:13.21``Erikac_cv_c_tkh=${ac_cv_c_tkh=/usr/brlcad/HEAD-ALL/include}
17:13.33``Erikthat's in the --enable-all build on that fbsd opteron
17:13.39``Erikthe first is from my mac
17:14.01starseekeryeah, it's doing something similar on my machine - $PREFIX/include
17:14.06starseekerthat's wrong
17:15.10starseekerit's why distcheck is failing here - tkhtmle is trying to use that include path and (surprise surprise) bombing because it's a different tk.h than it needs
17:16.14starseekerthis is beyond my level of autoconf foo - I got as far as knowing why the variable is named the way it is, but I so far can't figure where it's (not) being set
17:16.32starseekeror why tclh is
17:17.36starseeker``Erik any ideas?

17:26.25mafmwho's responsible for cleaning the ged result string between commands?
17:26.45mafmthe library with each new message, or the "user" of the library?

17:29.18``Erikstarseeker: nope, this'd be the point where I start reading the configure script itself :/

17:50.54CIA-24BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * r33034 10/brlcad/trunk/src/adrt/adrt_struct.h: bring into sync with isst
17:52.04starseeker``Erik:  tried that
18:43.02starseekerbrlcad:  Has this ac_cv_c_tkh variable ever been a problem before?
18:48.57starseeker``Erik:  Does make distcheck work for you on a Mac?
19:00.47``Erikd'no, haven't tried it
19:07.19CIA-24BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33035 10/brlcad/trunk/src/conv/3dm/3dm-g.cpp: using namespace std is prohibited juju

19:24.43starseekerOK, I'm beginning to see - tcl.m4 is what's supplying the variable
19:42.48CIA-24BRL-CAD: 03mafm * r33037 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libged/ (186 files): Initialize result before the sanity checks, because otherwise the error string keeps appending new errors to the last message
19:43.10CIA-24BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33038 10/brlcad/trunk/include/rtgeom.h: move brep.h up to the file header so it's not buried deep and sitting within the DECLS block
19:44.01mafmgoing home, take care folkz :)
19:45.17starseekerUh, tcl/generic is not the location for tk/generic...
20:16.37CIA-24BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33039 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/brep/brep.cpp: ws cleanup
20:47.50starseekerthis is so stupid - somewhere in this sea of config stuff TK_SRC_DIR must be getting set to the TCL src directory - but how to find it?
21:28.40starseekeranybody know how to "watch" a configure process to spot where variables are being set?
21:31.44``Erikread the script? :D
21:36.51starseekerdammit, I'm trying to
21:39.18``Erikread harder!
21:39.49``Erikwhen I get into brainbusters, I often put a lot of echo statements ini that script near what I think the fruity bit is, then run configure inside of a script(1) or 2>&1 | tee it
21:40.09``Erikor if you're masochistic, sh -x configure
