Bug in the configure script

[arnova]

I just tried to build XBMC on my Linux machine running Ubuntu 8.04.1 but the configure script failed on me with:

(14 ~/XBMC)% ./configure (arnova@galactica)
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
configure: error: ==unsupported host


I was able to fix it by adding a wildcard(*) in the configure script at line 1859 like this:

i*86*-linux-gnu*)


It would be nice if this could be fixed in SVN, I guess....

Can you paste the output of "uname -a" here?

Can you paste the output of "uname -a" here?

Here we go:
