Re: more binaries

[Alexander Levitsky <aalevitsky yahoo com>]

Pavel, Alex,

thank you very much for making things clear. 
I am happy, that started this small discussion. 
Is it possible to make changes in the INSTALL 
file to underline how to:
1) link glib statically;
2) do everything without root privileges.

Sincerely,
Alex
