this makes it impossible to switch between them without recompiling though for development and testing it may be usefull to enable both though one example are fate clients, which if these parts are mutually exclusive potentially wont compile test both or if they can be enabled at build time one wouldnt be able to select which to use at runtime as their names equal we maybe should introduce in addition to the default https & x11grab a x11grab_xcb and x11grab_x11 or something like that [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Let us carefully observe those good qualities wherein our enemies excel us and endeavor to excel them, by avoiding what is faulty, and imitating what is excellent in them. -- Plutarch
