Other Help Topics :: DSL Editions



I already have one built, as I mentioned (fltk.uci). It includes all of the above with the exception of FLDEV.  I tend to avoid *.dsl/*.unc extensions like a sickness, so unless yours is uci/tgz I'll continue to use my own and will probably go ahead and submit it (notice there are 3 mydsl versions of fltk-1.1.7).

But if your fltk-config is different than mine it may make a difference in behavior.
The main reason for asking the question is that I believe this script may need to be modified in order for it to use the dynamic FLTK library, since the headers were installed into /opt but the library is in /usr.

I'm just guessing here, though.  Unless I run into trouble I generally don't do any special magic other than commandline options listed by configure --help.  I don't really have any clue about how compilers/linkers work.

I find fltk-config by default makes static builds which are quite large.
I use command line options to g++ which results is very small binaries.

What's the qualifier here?

You like *.uci but not *.unc?  You shirk *.dsl but not *.tgz?

Off-topic, but it's mainly for two reasons:
1) *.dsl runs mkwriteable, which adds more of the system into ram, including the extension itself. The tar.gz extensions also increase ram use, but they do not run mkwriteable and are very easily removed when I'm through with them.
2)  Unionfs (unc requirement) breaks midnight commander's subshell feature, which I use constantly.

Gotcha. Cool enough.

And are you calling out my question as Off Topic? That seems to be unlike the ever-helpful and friendly mikshaw we all know and love here.
