[vlc-devel] [PATCH] apple: build: avoid configure if already done

[Steve Lhomme]

The same problem exist for all platforms. There are ways around this.

When I know I don't want to configure (ie most of the time) I just go in 
my build directory and run make.

If configure.ac has changed then configure will be run automatically. 
But if your environment is not set like in the build.sh you might have 
to run build.sh manually.
