[Mesa-dev] RE: autoconf stuff

You can disable it using --without-ggi In the next release I would recommend it, if someone would need to enable ggi explicitly. I don't think so. It wouldn't do any harm even if a broken ggi support is compiled in. The same with glide. (Some people have the glide lib installed, but no 3dfx card.) That's very unlikely. A way could be here to run /usr/local/glide/bin/test3dfx test, if a it found a card. This would probably take too much time. Please use --without-glide instead. (and --without-svga for SVGAlib, --without-x doesn't make sense since Mesa depends on X11 (so far...)) Why do you check for gethostbyname and other networking stuff ?? That's necessary for X11 (it's part of the X11 checks).
