I rebuilt yuqk with the right option (THANKS Jr).


I went back to my 3.8 source code, added the right lines for version

variables are accepted without any problem.

I'm happy.

The issue I mentioned earlier has disappeared !


What is the relationship between the "--disable-no-lc-identifiers" and

A new leap into the 5th dimension :(
