config.sub --help


I am trying to build tora-1.3.21 on FC4
and I think the error I'm getting is FC4 specific:

checking build system type... config.sub: missing argument
Try `config.sub --help' for more information.
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub failed
build.sh: line 2: --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt-3.3: No such file or directory
build.sh: line 3: --with-oci-version=oci8: command not found
build.sh: line 4: --with-instant-client: command not found

I can't get anthing from config.sub --help

[root@bilbo ~]# config.sub --help
-bash: config.sub: command not found

That's why I think it's FC4 specific.

Any leads?
<sigh>

Just a follow up: it wasn't FC4

I did find the cause of:
Try `config.sub --help' for more information.
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub failed
:Z
I had copy pasted from a previous install (yes, I keep notes) and there was a errant <space><cr><lf> or something in my script.

I opened it up in gedit and made sure there were no spaces after the \
I got much further this time with:

./configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt-3.3 \
--with-oci-version=oci8 \
--with-kde=/usr/lib/kde3 \
--with-instant-client=/home/oinstall/oracle


Anyhow. New day.
I almost have TOra installed

My humblest apologies for blaming FC per se.
It is computers in general that take things too bleeding literally! Bwahaha!

Hope you this helps if you found
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub failed
