RE: Re: Licq Build System

Just a suggestion, as someone who often builds both QT and KDE guis:

I'd like the ability to compile both KDE and QT guis at the same time,
perhaps by having the generated files for each go into a different
directory; this would allow me to do cvs update in the plugins/qt-gui
dir and then compile both GUIs from the same tree without having to do a
full recompile.  As it is now I check-out licq and licq-plugins, so I
already have two source trees, and I use one for kde-gui and one for
qt-gui.  But for users of the tarball there's only one qt-gui dir.

Also, the top-level configure script should detect which libraries you
have available and build the GUIs.  But I suppose to save time only one
should be built by default, but it would save me a TON of time if I
could do this:

[mark@cruithne licq]$ ./configure --enable-kde-gui --enable-qt-gui &&
make && su -c "make install"

Instead of what I have to do now, which involves 4-5 builds and building
the licq-plugins/* with a specified licq-headers path, etc.

Actually, I don't want any of the UI plugins to be built. The user
will have to choose console, qt-gui, kde-gui, gtk-gui, etc. I want the
general plugins to be built automatically... rms, auto-reply, msn...
the ones that won't fail if specific libraries aren't installed.
