The short answer is: yes, based on concrete user feedback I have added and will continue to add OPTIONS. The longer answers is: Wine itself has 44 --enable/--disable knobs and I guess we do not want to have that many OPTIONS nor do we want to build it with the maximum number of features and thus dependencies. What I am trying to do is to have those features that are relevant for most users always built, those where I see little to no use always disabled, and those in between as OPTIONS. As I receive input and suggestions from users, I move things between those three categories, the most common, but not sole, move being the one from the disabled to the OPTIONS bucket. Does that sound like a reasonable approach? Now, for some reason in the last week or two I have received more suggestions on this front than the entire year before, so you'll see me and my tester busy for a few evenings. :-) Gerald _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
