I have limited experience with the PACKAGES file as I need to use it to enable the inclusion of JACK AUDIO CONNECTION KIT. The packages file sets up the options one wants installed then the bootstrap incorporated the changes and the configure, make, & make install after that did the normal install, as long as all the dependencies were found. I don't know why all the options aren't included as default, if one doesn't use them it is only a bit of extra disk space used. If one was in a position where one had to remove something then they could go through a custom build.
Did you happen to find a source of 'soundtouch' when you did the pakages?? Brandon Casci wrote: > I just got done building the latest trunk out of mercurial on Ubuntu > 11.04.
