I can understand that it uses the libraries, because this is the way our configure scripts work. We should probably try to look at what has been done for the kde/aqua port.

This is certainly unnecessary. John, so you have any idea?

I would like to add it inside a test and I would like to know what are the conditions to test. I see that there are changes to metrics computation in your patch. I will not apply this one until we really know what is going on. Could you BTW produce your diff in unified format (diff -u). This is much easier to read IMO. JMarc
