Turning off checks for F77 in configure?

[John Stoffel]

Hi,

I'm working on converting a program from hand generated Makefiles and
such to using autoconf to do all the work.  It's a pure C and (mostly)
C++ set of programs.  There are a couple of libraries to be made, etc.

The only thing that bugs me is that my setup (debian 3.0, heavily
patched with unstable) always puts in the checks for Fortran in all
it's myriad of formats.  I have no .f code, so why is it putting these
checks in?

How can I force it to not happen?  Here's my configure.in input file,
kinda cludgy, and I'm still learning:

dnl Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.
AC_INIT(mtu)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(mtu, 0.15.0)
AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h)

AC_PROG_MAKE_SET

MTU_SUBDIRS="lib mtu"
AC_SUBST(MTU_SUBDIRS)

dnl Checks for programs.
AC_PROG_CC
AC_PROG_CXX
AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
AC_PROG_RANLIB
AC_PROG_INSTALL
AC_PROG_LN_S

dnl Checks for header files.

dnl Checks for typedefs, structures, and compiler characteristics.

dnl Checks for library functions.

AC_CHECK_PROG(WXWINDOWS,wx-config, 1, 0)   
if test "$WXWINDOWS" != 1; then
  AC_MSG_ERROR([ wxWindows must be installed ])
fi
AC_SUBST(EXTRA_WXWINDOWS_LIBS,`wx-config --libs`)
AC_SUBST(EXTRA_WXWINDOWS_CFLAGS,`wx-config --cflags`)

LTLIB="$EXTRA_WXWINDOWS_LIBS $LTLIB"
LIBS="$EXTRA_WXWINDOWS_LIBS $LIBS"

CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $EXTRA_WXWINDOWS_CFLAGS"
CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS $EXTRA_WXWINDOWS_CFLAGS"

dnl Conditionally compile the player stuff - broken now

AC_DEFUN([TEST_MACRO],
  [AC_ARG_WITH([player],
     AS_HELP_STRING([--with-player],
        [use player (default is NO)]),
    [ac_cv_use_player=$withval], [ac_cv_use_player=no])
AC_CACHE_CHECK([whether to use player],
 [ac_cv_use_player], [ac_cv_use_player=no])])
