Comment 2 Daniel Díaz 2005-08-24 19:00:17 UTC 
I talked briefly to Ronald about this a while ago, and he said he had already
changed it. There is a little patch, however, as latest CVS didn't do the trick
for me.
Comment 3 Thomas Vander Stichele 2005-08-25 23:39:09 UTC 
I think ronald changed this; otherwise you can run autogen.sh -- (configure options)
Comment 4 Daniel Díaz 2005-08-26 00:23:35 UTC 
As of yesterday's CVS, that wasn't happening. --host was not passed from
./autogen.sh to ./configure.

Needs backporting to HEAD.
Comment 6 Thomas Vander Stichele 2005-11-14 14:28:48 UTC 
I might be wrong, but the patch applied to HEAD doesn't seem to correctly update
the docs.  Especially in 0.9, it should definately be made sure that the
comments/help output match the behaviour.

Daniel, are you *sure* you used the "--" construct ? Ie, autogen.sh -- --host=... ?
Comment 7 Daniel Díaz 2005-11-14 15:30:45 UTC 
Thomas, I'm positive I didn't use the "--" construct. I misunderstood your first
comment.

Comment 9 Thomas Vander Stichele 2006-04-01 10:27:11 UTC 
closing, there's a simple documented way to pass these arguments.
Comment 10 Jan Schmidt 2006-04-05 08:47:12 UTC 
which is? :)
