<div>Yes, that's ok with me.</div><br>

<div>I can't give you the explanation about it. Do you know someone</div>
<div>who could explain it to us?</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">No, deduction can fail. There may be a case where SDLmain and SDL are<br>located in different directories. There is also the case that the
<br>libraries are not named what we expect. Thus, each one requires their<br>own field to handle these cases, as they do now. And this is the<br>reason for the complexity. </blockquote>
