I tend to install the minimum that I need to get things working, going on the theory that the less code there is the fewer things can go wrong, so I'd go for --with-plugins=federated. 'max' will install absolutely everything and might have additional dependencies not listed in the install guide. Like I said, I don't use the federated plugin (or any of the other non-mandatory plugins) as I don't need their functionality for my rather basic SQL needs. -- Mark. _______________________________________________ Clfs-support mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/listinfo.cgi/clfs-support-cross-lfs.org
