How does a packaging scheme solve the problem of not compiling in dependencies, or linking everything static? You cannot pre-build all possible combinations of selectable options. As for knobs that just say "build foo" or "don't build bar", those would indeed be fine for a packaging system, as long as packages aren't too dependent on each other. -Dimitry --Apple-Mail=_3975A253-942B-4B98-8796-4149E6A1AC31 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: Message signed with OpenPGP using GPGMail -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.26 iEYEARECAAYFAlSQgY8ACgkQsF6jCi4glqMzcACfegfej1GQoK8rTzNeheYWNftK pgUAoIgdp28rTaTRvxHs8rKx4qPopLzS =1KaN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Apple-Mail=_3975A253-942B-4B98-8796-4149E6A1AC31--
