[mythtv-users] endian test failed on ppc macos x

[Björn Lundin]

Is this the correct list for asking compilation trouble?

configure complains on endian test. It is a ppc machine,
and specifying --arch=ppc or --arch=powerpc does not make a  
difference either

Am I doing anything obviously wrong?


minimac: bnl$ pwd
/Users/bnl/slask2/mythtv-0.20

minimac: bnl$ ./configure
endian test failed
If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the  
latest
version from SVN.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to  
the
mythtv-dev at mythtv.org mailing list or IRC #mythtv on irc.freenode.net
Include the log file "config.err" produced by configure as this will  
help
solving the problem.
