The difficulty is, with Eclipse we have shared builders, so we have to pick one default or the other. But also Eclipse doesn't handle failures gracefully :-( Maybe we could have a 3-way switch: "yes I want it", "no I don't want it", and "detect whether it is there". This also affects the cairo code -- it would be nicer if configure was auto-detecting that I have the right setup on my FC5 box but not on my FC4 box... >> AC_SUBST(PLUGIN_DIR, $HOME/.mozilla/plugins/) Tom> Yes, these are a little weird.
