Magnus, Yes, by all means, let's not disturb the oldfashioned people. :) At least not yet. And my social contract offer with you is that I will assist you getting the build to work, after which I would request that you offer your most excellent suggestion again, as well as encourage others to try the patch if you like it. However, I will not be near my computer this Friday thru Sunday. The patch will work *best* at this time if: 1) you are *nix hosted 2) have your usb libraries in a standard place, preferably on the machine from a package manager 3) and can install CMake 2.6.2 on that machine Other scenarios may also work, but what I am saying is that the above scenario is _falling_down_ easy. 2) above is least important. If you can go to a point and then wait until I am back Monday without freaking out, that can work.
