Personally, I have a small tarball of shell scripts that I install in ~/bin on any machine where I'm asked to poke at PG problems. One of them is a frontend for configure that sets it up the way I like. If the vote went against me on this point, I'd add --disable-depend to that script and the problem would be solved so far as my personal wants were concerned. It remains though that such a default would be wasting build cycles forevermore for a majority of non-developers. Peter's point about the GCC-dependence of such a default seems pretty killer from here, too. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
