Often installs in /usr/local, rather than /opt/garbage/, which is presumably why he's compiling it himself in the first place. (Or, rather, it's why I often compile stuff instead of installing the package. I don't want it _there_, I want it over _here_.) > By the way, how does the ./configure script test for handling long lines? > I don't mean to tell you something you already know, but perhaps this > one slipped by. Exhaustively, I think. Compiling GST runs the max-line-length test...repeatedly. And then says it's caching the result. -- I need a line this long. Can you do it? Yes? Good. No? Abort.
