| 2 | optional. We have attempted to make sure that any code that depends on |
|---|
| 3 | optional libraries doesn't get built unless you have those libraries. If |
|---|
| 4 | you find this not to be the case, please, let us know by filing a bug |
|---|
| 5 | report at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/. |
