I found one other issue with network-manager-applet. The option,
-Dlibnm-gtk=true, is not needed because it is set true by default.

Hey, I think I've spotted an issue with the update-pki.service file in
the make-ca package. On my system the update would always fail, when
looking at my logs it was because it would try to run before I had a

Hello, I have a couple things I noticed in the systemd version of
BLFS. First on the systemd-237 package page, it has cryptsetup listed
under optional dependiences, but it doesn't link to the

page, I notice that it doesn't follow

Ok, so I downgraded to latest stable gnutls-3.5.18 (3.6 is the devel
version) and rebuilt glib-networking-2.56.0. It passed all the tests
for me:

Just thought I'd mention to the list that there is a new Polkit

Not about llvm, but I agree about using cmake's ninja support. It
made building webkitgtk so much faster for me.

Not you side track the discussion, but I was wondering if this option
is still needed.
# Optimization for size is broken with gcc7 and later

I've been building with just plain --enable-optimize for over a year
now with no issue. This is with gcc 8.2.0.

Hey, just wanted to mention that NetworkManager no longer depends on

I noticed on updating my dconf to 0.30.1 that it's default buildtype
is debug, which is equivalent to -O0. It should probably be set it to
either debugoptimized (-O2 -g) or release (-O3). There a few other
meson packages that also have debug as the default. I can't remember
which ones off hand.
I noticed some of the projects that switched to meson haven't set and
default buildtype, which means a debug build is produced. Most of the
gnome projects that switched set a default buildtype to debugoptimized
which is equivalent to -O2 -g (which autotools did). The book should
probably set debu

Well I've noticed the buildtype is set at configuration for a few
cmake packages
I wanted to list to know there is a --with-system-webp for Firefox 65 to
link against the system library. I've was able to complete one
successful build with that switch.
Also there is this commit from upstream ICU to fix Firefox building
against system ICU:
https://github.com/unicode-org/
One other thing I should add. This line from the mozconfig:
|# Optimization for size is broken with gcc7 and later |
|ac_add_options --enable-optimize="-O2"|
||
|It should probably be change to just --enable-optimize since we're
using clang now. |
