Re: [Snort-devel] ./Configure wierdness (1.8.1-RELEASE)

[Joe McAlerney <joey () SiliconDefense com>]

This seems to be an issue with the way AC_ARG_ENABLE is being used in
configure.in.  Flexable response produces the same effect if you use
--disable-flexresp.  Does someone know why this is?  For now, just run
configure without any options for the plugins you do not wish to use.

Regards,

-Joe M.
