Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

The package seems to be building examples during "make all" phase even though they are not installed at all. For details see my blog: http://blog.flameeyes.eu/articles/2008/06/11/please-dont-build-your-examples-by-default .

It would be nice if the examples were not built by default and (maybe) only built with FEATURES=test (as a able-to-link test). You can find an example patch usually suitable for upstream on the blog above.

Thanks,
Diego

In the mean time 0.11 and 0.12 have been released, too, bzw.

Thanks Carsten, I forgot to check this lately as I used to have it on specto -_-;

I've bumped and fixed this bug too, I mailed sam a patch so that make check will work just fine for these things in the future. I'm working on getting the testsuite executed already but it fails for me by default, probably userpriv issues, I'm working on that.
