Description

As far as I know there aren't any other programs that actually know how to talk to pcb via DBus, so there's no reason to enabled it by default and add the extra dependency. It can be made an optional dependency via a variant. If the situation changes (I don't see that happening in the near future) it can be made a default.

It's ​not very well documented, but it is preferred to use configure.args-replace here.

comment:4 Changed 8 years ago by technobauble (Chad Parker)

I'm sorry if I'm just missing it, but I don't see the syntax described anywhere. Presumably it's something like: 

configure.args-replace --old-arg-to-remove --new-arg-to-add

Please confirm, and I'll submit a revised patch if necessary.
