Many such files are actually part of the cmake package or added by the devel packages of some libraries.

I resolved the "STANDALONE" (now "SYSTEMLIBS") issue for my viewer by making it so that libraries that are not likely to be present in distros, or not properly patched for SL viewers, or simply incompatible, are still downloaded as the pre-built viewer libraries (i.e. the resulting viewer binary is linked against a mix of commonly available system libraries and exotic/patched pre-built libraries). It more or less works, i.e. it works on my system (PCLinuxOS) but one of my users encountered an issue with this method recently (probably because of his distro's curl library, which I will probably mark as "use-pre-built-curl-only" in future releases). Your best bet is however to keep building the viewer using the pre-built libraries and packaging it together with them (/usr/games/YourViewerName is a good candidate for the packaged build destination). > - VLC: Henri pointed out a few times, that the VLC api is not exactly > stable between releases.
