well, i don't think that the external build system as it is at the moment is the best way to build externals:
Feel free to improve it :). The bottom line is that it works for most
cases, and with a simple "make" you can compile most of the externals
in CVS.
- it doesn't handle libraries
It does handle libraries, check out externals/build/src/ogg*.c and
externals/build/linux/ogg*.libs.
- it doesn't handle flext externals
- it doesn't handle special compile time flags / configure scripts / whatever
- it's using old pd header files (0.37)
Feel free to update them if that'll make a difference to something that
you are doing, unless Günter objects. This build system that he wrote
is more flexible that you might guess, tho it is unorthodox. But
considering how chaotic Pd development and the Pd CVS are, I think its
a good solution.
