Subject: bootstrap: Allow 'ln -s' to be overridden by the user.
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7cdd728122943b0267e867af25a3a01c62891f85;p=thirdparty%2Fautoconf.git

bootstrap: Allow 'ln -s' to be overridden by the user.

For example, one might set LN_S=cp when working on an
OS or filesystem that does not support symbolic links.

* bootstrap: Honor $LN_S environment variable, defaulting
  to 'ln -s'.
