[pacman-dev] Compilation warnings
by Dan McGee 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

These have been in the compile output for a while, perhaps we should look into it. I have a guess that it may be related to libdownload not installing a .la file (and it is also missing .so symlinks, compare to libarchive for example).
