Hi Greg, Thanks for your excellent test reports! Re: behaviour of auto-downloading googletest if not available, you have previously voiced this two years ago: https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/proj/2024-May/011405.html We discussed the default behaviour with https://github.com/OSGeo/PROJ/pull/4220 And the result of this discussion was to keep the default to auto-download googletest if not available. However, users/packagers that do not want this behaviour can opt-out with TESTING_USE_NETWORK=OFF described here: https://proj.org/en/stable/install.html#cmdoption-arg-TESTING_USE_NETWORK Cheers, Mike _______________________________________________ PROJ mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/proj
