Thanks, Jan. This is pushed now.

And did I say welcome to notmuch yet? (It's easy to lose track with all
|
||
|
the newcomers---which I'm not complaining about---especially since so
|
||
|
many are sharing code.)

PS. I actually really like the behavior of -C (especially when
|
||
|
installing a low-level library to avoid big waterfalls of needless
|
||
|
recompiles). But since we're *not* actually installing a library (yet)
|
||
|
I'm happy with this patch rather than writing code in configure to check
|
||
|
if "install -C" works or not.
