Optional Features
=================
-`--without-libplot'
- Don't compile in support for charts (using libplot). This is
- useful if your system doesn't have the libplot library.
+`--without-cairo'
+ Don't compile in support for charts (using Cairo and Pango). This
+ is useful if your system lacks these libraries.
`--without-gui'
Don't build the PSPPIRE gui. Use this option if you only want to
build the command line version of PSPP.
+ Cairo and Pango required to build the GUI, so --without-cairo
+ implies --without-gui.
+
`--with-gui-tools'
Build the gui developer tools. There is no reason to use this
option unless you're involved with the development of PSPP
