Upstream has rules for installing libminizip at contrib/minizip/Makefile.am. Are you saying that they are buggy or unmaintained? > Please discuss this with upstream. If you have bug reports in upstream's libminizip support, I'm happy to work on them upstream. Last time I checked, it Just Worked (tm). I don't think it would make sense to go upstream and say "Mark Brown is not happy with how contrib/minizip deals with the shared library. Discuss" without further details. ;-) Thanks, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
