You could go with "minimal" in that case. How big said documentation would be? Over 100M? Because boost's libraries are 100M without debug information. In general I prefer having everything available by default if it doesn't require impossible amount of space, add dependency, or take time to build. We have INSTALL_MASK and FEATURES=nodoc if you don't want the documentation, after all. -- Diego Elio Pettenò — Flameeyes flamee...@flameeyes.eu — http://blog.flameeyes.eu/
