Hi Karl,
there I made a mistake in choosing defaults when translating from TL2008 to
TL2009. Quite easy to fix, but maybe not today.
The options '--with-x --enable-mf-nowin' will get you them all of that
(including X). You could add them in ./Build but it is certainly better if
I adjust the defaults.
================
Two related to points:
Which of --with/without-mf-x-toolkit and --enable/disable-ipc should be the
defaults?
Maybe you could add something like TL_MAKE_FLAGS to the Build script, such
that one could, e.g., say
TL_MAKE_FLAGS='-j 4' ./Build
for a parallel build (much faster on a multicore system).
Regards
Peter
