The autoconf documentation describes the distinction between --with-PACKAGE and --enable-FEATURE, but since lokkit is a package, and "lokkit-support" can be considered a feature of libvirt, it's a little ambiguous. However, since autoconf gives the examples of "--with-x" and "--with-gnu-as", "--with-lokkit" does seem to be more in line. -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
