Subject: configure: only check in the watt library if WATT_ROOT is set
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=090056522b494feee8bb2e127a3df087b8753e56;p=thirdparty%2Fcurl.git

configure: only check in the watt library if WATT_ROOT is set

Only look for gethostbyname in libwatt in $WATT_ROOT/lib if WATT_ROOT
has actually been set. This avoids configure trying to search in /lib,
which won't every succeed and can cause problems in cross builds which
check that host paths are not being searched.

Closes #22380
