1225	psbuild: restrict extlibs and extperl dependencies depending on what's being built	Sebastian Jester	eugene	"The extlibs and extperl mechanism by now is quite good at making sure that IPP in its entirety compiles. However, some problems linger, including some we ran into when compiling the Ohana-only tarball at http://kiawe.ifa.hawaii.edu/eugene/downloads/Ohana.20081024.tgz

Many PS1SC people will want to install Ohana, but those don't need to compile all the dependencies of all of IPP; both to circumvent installation problems of some of these dependencies, and just to save time during compilation. However, currently psbuild -extbuild builds all the dependencies of all of IPP.

I.e. psbuild should allow the dependencies actually to depend on what's being built, so that 
`psbuild -extbuild -only Ohana`
doesn't build things that aren't required by Ohana.

Attached to the ticket is an email from Gene to Mark Huber where this came up, and where Gene suggested building only the things required by Ohana for the Ohana-only distribution (""png, jpeg, readline"")."	enhancement	assigned	normal		psconfig	current	normal
