44 Thanks, Jan. This is pushed now.
\r
46 And did I say welcome to notmuch yet? (It's easy to lose track with all
\r
47 the newcomers---which I'm not complaining about---especially since so
\r
48 many are sharing code.)
\r
52 PS. I actually really like the behavior of -C (especially when
\r
53 installing a low-level library to avoid big waterfalls of needless
\r
54 recompiles). But since we're *not* actually installing a library (yet)
\r
55 I'm happy with this patch rather than writing code in configure to check
\r
56 if "install -C" works or not.
