I am building netsurf for an ARM9 Linux system and want to use nsfb. I
read the BUILDING-Framebuffer and it mentions required dependencies of
libglade, libxml2, librsvg and curl. For a cross-compile environment,
it wasn't completely clear if these dependencies are required only on
the build machine or if they are [also] required on the target
machine for runtime linking.
If these are required on the target system, it adds a lot of extra
code, as libglade requires gtk+ and librsvg requires cairo, which in
turn requires directfb. If I have to build gtk+ for use with glade,
what's the savings (in code space) over using the native gtk+ interface
for netsurf?
I did browse the last 6 months or so of the mailing list archives and
didn't see a clear answer to this, so please excuse me if it was
discussed a long time ago and I didn't go back far enough.
