I know there is good reason for that (so everybody can rebuild it) but this puts additional burden to package maintainers. I just uploaded scummvm binary deb but have to remove it if this is requirement. I don't have time to package also tremor, libmad and limbpeg so you can rebuild it properly. Also scummvm build process currently crashes with internal compiler error in Kyrandia engine and one file must be build with different compiler flags by hand. I know this is specific issue (which will probably go away with next compiler) but still there are the dependencies and others may have other reasons why rebuilding directly from source doesn't work or isn't easy.
I have a similar issue with xmame. It relies on semi-extensive makefile customization for each arch/cpu/set of prefs, and it would be less than fun to script this for an automated build. -- Tcsh: Now with higher FPS! http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/shouldbefree.html _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
