Hi, As far as I'm concerned, I prefer a simple INSTALL file where I find the dependance : OSG 2.6.0 plib 1.8.5 etc... For the Linux distribution where the good release isn't present, we can't provide a new package built by the FG community. To day, I have my own package for OSG and PLIB. And of course a FG/SG releaes has to be used with an official release of OSG, Plib, etc... (and don't use a CVS/SVN devel) I can build also FG / SG packages : simgear-cvs_20081117_i386.deb simgear-dev_20081117_i386.deb Otherwise, we will link all lib in static with FG/SG (OSG, plib, libc... kernel ?)
