./configure options used in official packages


Is it possible to determine the ./configure options used in the official Slackware packages? I'd like to make some changes to Apache, MySQL, and PHP, but would rather start with what Slackware did and just make a few small additions.

Thanks!

You just need to go to the /source tree in your nearest Slackware mirror (or look on the official CD/DVD) and read the <program_name>.SlackBuild script that was used to build the <program_name> package.
