If you want to do a BSD-style install to /usr/local, and I seem to recall that you do want to do that, that sounds OK. The main reason for debug builds is so that you can use gdb when things crash. But believe it or not, we do have quite a lot of cmake packages in BLFS. I'm sure that most of them are in the kde chapters, and if you look there you will see -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release on some of the packages. Yes, even in BLFS-7.7. Unfortunately, cmake is gaining increasing mind-share, and sometimes the required defines to do what the builder wants are uncommon, or even non-existent. ĸen -- This email was written using 100% recycled letters. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
