It doesn't, in many cases, including + current versions of GNU ld. This guarantees that the build tree is + linking with the right libraries, instead of the ones installed in + /usr/lib. + + Header files, man pages, and the et/ss shell scripts are now + generated using a custom substitution script, instead of relying on + the configure script. This prevents needless recompilation of + files; in addition, the custom substitution script is much faster. + + e2fsck may now be linked dynamically, by using the + --enable-dynamic-e2fsck flag to configure. This is not recommended, + since it increases e2fsck's dependence on other files, but some + people need to save disk space, and other critical programs on their + systems were being linked dynamically anyway. + + Programs such as fsck which didn't need to be linked against + libext2fs (or mke2fs which didn't need to be linked against libe2p) + only link against libraries they actually need. Otherwise, those + programs would require the presence of libraries that otherwise + could be removed from a rescue diskette. + + The ss include files are now installed correctly so they can + actually be used by another package. + + If the profiling libraries are built, they are now installed on a + "make install-libs". + -- cgit v1.2.3
