Re: [ptxdist] splashutils fails to build

[Martin Hejnfelt <mh@newtec.dk>]

Hi Michael,

Thank you for clearing this up. So how should this be handled? First
of all, I guess --enable-static should be in the splashutils makefile,
second of all, should libpng and so on, then depend on this in some
way, or can that enable_static=no rule instead be changed directly
from splashutils if needed?
