Description Paul Eggleton 2015-08-16 08:15:27 UTC
At the moment, *-config scripts modified by binconfig-disabled just output an invalid configure option and return 1; it would be useful if they also printed an message to stderr that spelled out why that has been done and that pkg-config should be used instead.
