Then we'll get c-ares depends on cmake (required) cmake depends on curl (recommended) curl depends on c-ares (optional) I think we should always use autotools/make or meson/ninja if one of them are avaliable, rather than cmake. Autotools/make and meson/ninja are avaliable on a fresh LFS system. But to use cmake we have to install 4 packages: libuv, curl, libarchive, cmake. -- Xi Ruoyao <[email protected]> School of Aerospace Science and Technology, Xidian University -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
