The note about “copy Apple’s config.guess from /sw” is ambiguous. What I did was create a shell script that does:
#!/bin/sh echo 'powerpc-apple-aux' exit
and then make all the src modifications as indicated in the URL above.
Tip: this one-liner will updated the include paths in the src files:
grep -r 'include ' * | \ grep 'indri/Parameters' | \ perl -n -e 's/:.*//;print' | \ xargs perl -pi.orig -e \ 's,indri/Parameters.hpp,indri/IndriParameters.hpp,'
Spurious errors about '-static: no such option' from the g++ compiler can be ignored, or might try --disabled-shared option to configure.
Just finished racing through Neal Stephenson’s Baroque Cycle, three novels set in the 17th century. As early modern European history was my undergrad major, and technology my current occupation, this series was a real treat (which can explain how I finished 3000 pages in 3 weeks).
I liked William Dalrymple’s From the Holy Mountain so much that I convinced my book club to try another of his travel books.
Jonathan Schell’s book was a Christmas gift a couple years ago. Took me some time to get through it. Not because it was poor writing (though it’s not particularly lyrical) but because it’s emotionally difficult to consider war when your country is mired in one.
