AC_MSG_CHECKING(for library combo)
AC_ARG_WITH(library-combo,[
--with-library-combo Define the default library combination
--with-library-combo
Define the default "library combo". The library combo is a string
of the form aaa-bbb-ccc where 'aaa' is the Objective-C runtime
library to use (examples are 'gnu' and 'apple'),
'bbb' is the Foundation library to use (examples are 'gnu' for
gnustep-base, and 'apple' for Apple Cocoa FoundationKit),
and 'ccc' is the ApplicationKit to use (examples are 'gnu'
for gnustep-gui and 'apple' for Apple Cocoa AppKit). Use this
option if you want to force a different default library combo than
the one that would be used by default. For example, on Darwin GNUstep
will automatically use the Apple Objective-C frameworks by
default (library-combo=apple-apple-apple); if you are planning
on installing and using gnustep-base on there, you would need
to use --with-library-combo=gnu-gnu-gnu instead. Please notice
that if --disable-flattened is used, gnustep-make can have fat
binaries that support multiple library combos. In that case,
this flag will only configure the default one, but you can still
use other ones at run-time.

AC_MSG_CHECKING(for flattened directory structure)
AC_ARG_ENABLE(flattened,
[--disable-flattened Disable flattened directory structure],
AC_ARG_ENABLE(flattened, [
--disable-flattened
Disable flattened directory structure. Use this option if you want
to have support for multiple library combos and fat binaries. A
library combo specifies the Objective-C frameworks to use to compile
a program, so having multiple library combos is only useful if you
have (or plan to have) multiple OpenStep-like Objective-C frameworks
installed on your machine, for example both the Apple Cocoa Objective-C
frameworks and the GNUstep frameworks. Fat binaries allow you to
have multiple versions for different CPUs and Operating Systems.
Please note that using the fat directory structure will not blend
easily with native filesystems and so if you want the non-flattened
directory structure you probably want to install GNUstep using its
own default filesystem layout. To switch between different
library-combos, you also need to source GNUstep.sh after
setting the LIBRARY_COMBO environment variable. Please refer to
the documentation for more information on library-combos and fat
binaries.
