So you get fired for installing automake-1.11 in $HOME, but not for installing efl from svn?Depends on the boss / management. A large enough percentage are known for making crazy decisions like that, so you have to keep that in mind. For all we know his job might require him to build EFL SVN on a stock Ubuntu 10.10 install. shrugs
I don't think that Simon will be fired because of this :)
You can just take it that you'll lose another 4 targets (SLE 11
SP{1,2} {i586, x86_64}) for regular build with different library
versions dependencies. Nothing more.
You can also consider adding this requirement to README file. That is
one of the output these builds should provide.
Since autopoo is build requirement and not system requirement (e.g.
BuildRequire x Require in spec file), I believe we can just add it to
build system from other than distribution source to fix it.
