           Summary: Cross Compile configure errors
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 3.0.0b2
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-devel at kdevelop.org
        ReportedBy: david at avoncliff.com


Version:           3.0.0b2 (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc3.3 (suse) 
OS:          Linux

I have set Project->project options->config Options->Configure arguments to 
"host=i386-uclibc" and run re-config which runs though about 23 tests all of 
which look OK until "invalid configuration "i386-uclibc": system 'uclibc' not 
recognized.
>From the documentaion I belive I have set the correct option and this should work.
I have reported this on mail list, but no resolution.

here are errors as reported.
