Sorry if I was a bit unclear earlier. The make process does not need all binding languages as dependencies as cmake and configure take care of preventing those from being built. So the make works fine with no optional dependencies installed. Just to make sure I understand you correctly, I should: - make a base package with C/C++ bindings only (as they are mandatory) - an additional package per binding that the user may want to install - listing the additional packages as optional dependencies from the base one - listing the binding language of each additional package as mandatory dependency there Thus, if I would like to install the package with 2 additional bindings it will be downloaded and build 3 times in order to get 1 functional installation: - the base package - the base package + binding x (2 times) Thanks.
