[Fink-devel] build dependencies
hi, how should fink handle the following problem: some packages link against certain libraries in case they are found during build time. for example python links against libpoll in case libpoll is installed. the resulting binary does not depend on the library and it probably wouldn't work properly on a system without that library. should one add all these libraries that are used in case they are present at build time as an dependency? cheers, kilian ___ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
Re: [Fink-devel] build dependencies
should one add all these libraries that are used in case they are present at build time as an dependency? Yes. Sometimes you can avoid this with a flag to the ./configure script, however, to force the package to compile without using the library. But if you can't disable, and if it is used whenever it is found, then you should make sure it gets found by stating it as a dependency. -- Dave ___ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
