It is. As I said, if you *don't* have a dependency, then you need to *explicitly* disable it. Qt3 (not Qt5, there isn't Qt5 library for Avahi that I'm aware of) isn't in the book so it needs to be explicitly disabled in the same way as mono and monodoc and what not. -- Note: My last name is not Krejzi. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
