Hello,

First, thank you (all) for your work and effort in supplying the world with very functional open source code.

This is probably a newb question, but I'm in the thick of porting code and bringing-up an Android-based Freescale iMX6 arm processor and we needed a bunch of libs including libcurl, but I am having trouble finding the correct ./configure options to create the headers and such, so that I can build libcurl on Android (from Ubuntu 12.04 64b).

I've been googling and grepping and trying all the ./configure options that seem to make sense and that have worked on this platform before, but, even though the configure script builds everything fine, later when I do the android make

make libcurl, I get:

       external/curl/include/curl/curlrules.h:142:3: error: size of array '__curl_rule_01__' is negative
       external/curl/include/curl/curlrules.h:152:3: error: size of array '__curl_rule_02__' is negative
       make: *** [out/target/product/evk_6sl/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libcurl_intermediates/lib/file.o] Error 1

This must be because the ./configure options I've been using are wrong for cross-compiling from Ubuntu64 to Android ARM? I have been using many variations of this command:

I can't be the only person trying to build libcurl on Android. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, or what the correct incantation is to ./configure to build from Ubuntu 64b for ARMv7 Freescale iMX6? (I don't think the details of the iMX6 are important, but I include that here anyway).

Huge thanks for any help,

Rick
