The existing tools are built agains TCL/TK 8.3 which are not on the new
system.
I tried --host=i686-linux-gnu, and it now no longer complains about the
x86_64 stuff.  But as I suspected, it now can't find the TCL/TK
(tclConfig.sh/tkConfig.sh).  Did these files get removed in version 8.4?

I don't have an x86_64 system installed here (I run simple x86 kernel
on my AMD/64 boxes), so I can't test this.

Is there something in particular you need to [re]build the host tools for?

Thanks, Gary.  I can now report success in building the ecosconfig tool.  I
needed to install the TCL and TK development packages (yum install
tcl-devel, yum install tk-devel).  The --host error was happening in the
gprof configure directory, which I don't need, so I only ran configure in
the host directory which worked.  Turns out it worked with the
--host=i686-linux-gnu and without, producing the exact same executable
either way.

I think you need to install the TK development packages.

You can probably also just fake it
  # ln -s /usr/lib/libtcl8.{4,3}.so
  # ln -s /usr/lib/libtk8.{4,3}.so

Alternatively, I have RPM packages built on Fedora 7 I could give you.

Yes, but there seems to be some 'sub-configures' that aren't getting the
--host= argument passed to them, and do the guess host thing, which guesses
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu again, which fails.

I'm also concerned that even if I could get past this, it would fail finding
TCL and TK, since there doesn't seem to be a tclConfig.sh or tkConfig.sh
file anywhere on the installation.  Yes, I did install TCL and TK (version
8.4).

I'd be a little surprised if someone had :-)

Did you try forcing the host to be just x86-linux-gnu?  The
process will probably work just as well with that setting.

I'm trying to build the host tools (ecosconfig, et al) on a new install of
Fedora 8 (x86_64).  I am getting the following error when running configure:

	checking build system type... Invalid configuration
`x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-unknown' not recognized.

I tried adding --host=x86_64-linux-gnu to the configure options, but it
seems that the configure script isn't passing this down to the
sub-configures, and I end up with the same error further on.  I'm sure
someone has built these tools on a x86_64 linux architecture that could
provide me with the solution to this problem.

Jay
