Gpsdrive

I'm having a problem configuring gpsdrive on my FC4 box.

It's looking for GCC 3.0, I've got GCC 4.0 as part of the distro and the confiuration is busting out on me.

Anyone got a fix?

I edited configure.ac

if test "$CC" = "gcc" ; then

if $CC -dumpversion|egrep -q "^4\.*"; then
^3^ Was
echo "GCC ok"

search through the configure file for the lines

echo "*********************************"
echo "You need a gcc>= 3.x to compile GpsDrive"
echo "*********************************"
exit

if you remove line that tells it to 'exit' it'll compile and run (at least it did for me on FC4)

Actually I fixed it the right way:

Edited Configure.sc thus:

if $CC -dumpversion|egrep -q "^4\.*"
#if $CC -dumpversion|egrep -q "^3\.*"

Ran like a champ!

Although I'm not sure if the arguments passed to version 3 are the same as the arguments passed to 4, or rather if there are other better arguments that could have been invoked.
