For most of us with fast internet access this is very small, but we should in general case not forget that there exist people on earth with slow, instable connection in third world countries. I can remember at least one message from south africa to this list about one year ago. But of course 18.8 Mb is not really much, and I think most people in third world will not be concerned with electronics. > > I see no real reason why we can't work towards a single unified build > where you can use --disable-foo to disable optional components if so > desired. > > From a developer and user of git or cvs sources point of view, I'd > *much* rather run configure once instead of 9 (!) times.

Is there a plan to fix file collision with gnetman? Currently gEDA includes and installs gnetman symbols, which gnetman from sourceforge installs also. So smart packages mantainers have to take care for this for gEDA 1.4.3.
