Surely we can skip those in the first instance: theres no requirement to
install all the headers and stati libraries, we can choose to just
install:
* the library
* the modules
* the *.st files
* gst itself
and strip
* *.h
* *.la
* *.a
- sure the library wont be usable by other packages immediately, but
we'd get to find out about build problems, and perhaps look at how we
can build a gnu-smalltalk-gtk ( using blox-gtk) version for folk that
want that (I do) as as as gnu-smalltalk-tk for the tk folk, without
doing a full rebuild.
Perhaps Paolo will have some ideas on that.
