Hi all.

I tried to configure insight in a a build directory and the configure
script bombed out on me.

cd insight-19990809
mkdir build52 ; cd build52
../configure --prefix=$HOME/project/insight52

...

*** Cannot configure here in

"../../../gdb/gdbserver" is currently configured.
configure: error: /home/mo/project/insight-19990809/gdb/../configure
failed for
gdbserver
Configure in /home/mo/project/insight-19990809/build52/gdb failed,

My System:
RedHat 5.2
kernel 2.2.9
glibc2.0
autoconf 2.12


Any ideas? Could I just remove the error from the configure script
or was it put in there for some reason?
