tlbuild: Library-specific configure options
7.3 Library-specific configure options
======================================
Here are (some of) the library-specific 'configure' options, starting
with this generic one:
'--with-system-LIB'
Use an installed (system) version of the library 'LIB'; this option
exists for most libraries, but is not allowed for a native TL build.
Using a system version implies also using the system versions of all
libraries that LIB depends on.
For many libraries '--with-LIB-includes=DIR' and
'--with-LIB-libdir=DIR' can specify non-standard search locations;
others use 'pkg-config' or similar to determine the required flags.
The top-level 'configure' script performs a consistency check for all
required system libraries and bails out if tests fail.
