i have been caught in this exact scenario recently. and yes, if the library exists in extras or extras-devel then whilst building your application it will find and use them.
there is a gotcha though: if you add NEW calls or references or headers into the library since you last updated, it will FAIL because your app will be trying to load in the older versions. it was something I encountered and pondered whether we could make the autobuilder "cheat" and look in the "queued for updating to extras-devel" list so that it found the others. but at the end of the day, I just uploaded and got the library through, waited an hour, then sent the app. gary On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 3:24 PM, Jeremiah Foster < [email protected]> wrote: > > On Jun 24, 2009, at 17:11, Luca Donaggio wrote: > > > I'm writing an application (actually a RAW image files viewer, for > > those interested :-) ) which depends at build time from an external > > library.
