Yes. I tried to do that once and just lost interest before getting it working (didn't take long). Really though, <rant> I find it annoying to install a library that is statically linked by only one application into my lib directories. There's already way too much useless crapola and redundancy-because-everyone-wants-to-start-their-own-project-these-days in the typical linux distro's library directory(ies) these days.</rant> Which is why I have them installing in a non-default prefix location. Just a thought... :-) Best, Jim _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
