Hmm...I missed that part..I thought it would be a quick config fix :-( Yes, git submodule should be the approach.

This is a build/packaging issue. I think right now libxio needs to be present at build time and it's not available in any of the distros we build for. Usually what we do in this situation is embed it as a git submodule (like we do with rocksdb). Happy to take patches that do that if that's the best route (I suspect it is?). There'll be a few final tweaks in the build environment then to set up the git repo mirror but nothing major. I'd look at how things are handled with rocksdb now as a model? sage ________________________________ PLEASE NOTE: The information contained in this electronic mail message is intended only for the use of the designated recipient(s) named above.
