Description Alberto Ruiz 2008-02-02 03:20:24 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When cross-compiling gtk+ from linux to other platform, cups-config is found, but the headers can't be used to build anything since we're targetting to another platform. And we get this critical error:

checking for cups-config... /usr/bin/cups-config
checking cups/cups.h usability... no
checking cups/cups.h presence... no
checking for cups/cups.h... no
configure: error: *** Sorry, cups-config present but cups/cups.h missing.


There's no way to override this behaviour, while disabling the feature with a warning should be enough.

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

I would prefer having a --without-cups flag. Can that be arranged?
Comment 4 Alberto Ruiz 2008-03-02 21:46:47 UTC 
It's probably a better idea indeed.
