If the latter, then I can further patch gnulib's bootstrap to fall back gracefully to a use of the older 'git clone --reference' instead of 'git submodule update --init --reference'. Are there any other tools that we should be adding into the prereq list, now that gnulib's bootstrap does a good job of aborting early if a development tool is insufficient for building from a git snapshot? -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
