Re: pkg: error running the configure script for communications.

[Navneet Battan]

I think we are entering into fi of configure.ac in communications pkg. I don't have much idea about it, i am just digging.

have_hdf5=no

# check for HDF5 using pkg-config

PKG_CHECK_MODULES([HDF5],[hdf5],

 [have_hdf5=yes ],

 []

)

if test $have_hdf5 = no; then

  save_CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS"

  save_LIBS="$LIBS"

  AC_CHECK_LIB(hdf5,H5Fopen,

    [

     have_hdf5=yes

     AC_CHECK_HEADERS([hdf5.h])

     HDF5_LIBS=-lhdf5

    ],

    [],

  )

  CPPFLAGS="$save_CPPFLAGS"

  LIBS="$save_LIBS"

fi

if test $have_hdf5 = no; then

  AC_MSG_ERROR([hdf5 not found])

fi

Warm Regards,

Navneet

Looks unrelated.
