configure script problem

hey i'm trying to get the configure script to go

hopefuly this isn't a flat out dupe or anything
running debian unstable
running the script as superuser doesn't make a difference

this is what it sayssssss;

Code: Select all

This is Eggdrop's GNU configure script.
It's going to run a bunch of tests to hopefully make your compile
work without much twiddling.

checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details.

and this is what i beleive the relevant parts of config.log are

Code: Select all

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by Eggdrop configure 1.6.16, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.59.  Invocation command line was

  $ configure

For some reason, configure think's you are trying to cross-compile. What Eggdrop version is this? Try 1.6.16 and 1.6.17 CVS (see README).

Can you compile other things ok?

Either this is an autoconf bug or a debian bug.. ./configure is generated by GNU Autoconf, not directly written by Eggdev...

This is just an idea, but try:

Code: Select all

unset CHOST
unset CFLAGS
unset CFLGS
unset CC
sh configure
